Subject: Revert "media: uvcvideo: Remove nodrop parameter"
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=17526c7e69d07395e9d39794aacba42dcb02ff49;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

Revert "media: uvcvideo: Remove nodrop parameter"

This reverts commit 27ccc44a511b0cd76dc607e2a4893b876192ee1b.

A user has reported that the Zoom Video Conferencing tool is not capable
of handling invalid frames. Due to this, he has to continue using this
parameter.

We will keep working with Zoom so they can handle invalid frames
correctly, but for this cycle the safest option is to revert this
parameter drop.
