SRU justification:

Impact: In Intrepid the change to v4l2 and use of v4l1 compatibility library has caused several issues with the uvcvideo driver which in this case are visible using cheese.

Fix: Several patches were backported from the upstream kernel driver and the uvcvideo project to fix those issues. All of the patches are limited to the uvcvideo module and have been tested as part of a PPA build.

Testcase: With the current driver in Intrepid the webcams do not work with cheese. The updated module works.
