So you mean the sensor hardware has controls, but the sensor driver doesn't implement
them? Do I understand you correctly?

If the sensor driver does not implement controls (i.e. has a struct v4l2_ctrl_handler),
then everything is fine and the v4l2-compliance output is correct.

Please confirm this. I just want to be 100% certain about this before I make the pull
request.

Thanks,
