    I'm not sure about this patch. '1 << 31' is used all over in the kernel,
    including in public headers (e.g. media.h, videodev2.h).

    It seems arbitrary to change it only here, but not anywhere else.

    In this particular example for the fourcc handling I would prefer to just
    use '1U << 31', both in v4l2-ioctl.c and videodev2.h.

    A separate patch doing the same for MEDIA_ENT_ID_FLAG_NEXT in media.h would
    probably be a good idea either: that way the public API at least will do
    the right thing.

    Regards,

    Hans
