WARNING: You are using an experimental version of the media stack.
        As the driver is backported to an older kernel, it doesn't offer
        enough quality for its usage in production.
        Use it with care.
Latest git patches (needed if you report a bug to linux-media@vger.kernel.org):
        d3302689d697a99d565ea37c8fb9a19a1a5d0f06 [media] rc-core: fix

The git changeset is a way better than a version number.
