Bug Description
Note: This is about the SN9C201 driver not the SN9C102 which is already in mainline kernel.org
Including this driver in Ubuntu would enable 22 new types of webcams to work in Ubuntu (it's pretty much all the 0c45:* cams but also a few 045e:* cams that use the same sensor chip as the 0c45:* cams).
NOTE: These are cams that lack _any_ driver at all today and they all have status "SUPPORTED" with this out-of-tree driver, while another 3 has status "Under development" and might work reasonably but not perfect):

Webcams that will be fixed by this inclusion includes:
* Sonix webcam (0c45:624f)
* LifeCam VX-6000 (045e:00f4) which uses the same camera sensor
