The number of items in the menu changes; I fixed that while applying the
patch:



Let me know if you see issues with this.

This change actually causes an issue.

This problem was found when I got the list of available controls for
ov9650 subdev.

$ yavta -l /dev/v4l-subdev0
<...>
--- Image Processing Controls (class 0x009f0001) ---
control 0x009f0903 `Test Pattern' min 0 max 2 step 1 default 0 current 0.
  0: Disabled (*)
  1: Color bars

Strangely, the max control value is '2'.  So I tried to set the control to '2'
for the fun and got a null pointer dereference.

$ yavta -w '0x009f0903 2' --no-query /dev/v4l-subdev0
Device /dev/v4l-subdev0 opened.
Segmentation fault

Then, I found that the root cause is unnecessary terminated entry.
So 'ARRAY_SIZE(test_pattern_menu) - 1' (=1) should be passed to
v4l2_ctrl_new_std_menu_items().

Oops. Indeed, I'll drop that change above.

Thanks!
