Subject[PATCH] media: vidioc-queryctrl.rst: clarify combining READ_ONLY with WRITE_ONLY
Date
Make it clear in the documentation that V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_READ_ONLY doesn't
conflict with V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_WRITE_ONLY. Also make it clear that
if both are combined then the control has read and write permissions.

Hi,

v4l2-compliance expects both flags for read and write permissions, so I
would like to make it clear in the docs.
Please let me know if this is not the case.

Thanks
Helen
