While normal video/radio/vbi/swradio nodes have a proper QUERYCAP ioctl that apps can call to determine that it is indeed a V4L2 device, there is currently no equivalent for v4l-subdev nodes. Adding this ioctl will solve that, and it will allow utilities like v4l2-compliance to be used with these devices as well. SUBDEV_QUERYCAP currently returns the version and capabilities of the subdevice. Define a capability flag to report if the subdevice is registered in read-only mode.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
