Right now we power-up the device when a user open() the device and we
power it off when the last user close() the first video node.
This behaviour affects the power consumption of the device is multiple
use cases, such as:
- Polling the privacy gpio
- udev probing the device
This patchset introduces a more granular power saving behaviour where
the camera is only awaken when needed. It is compatible with
asynchronous controls.
