[media] gspca: Add a need_max_bandwidth flag to sd_desc
Some cameras will pretty much entirely fill all the image buffers all the time even though they are using compression. This patch adds a flag to sd_desc, which drivers for such cameras can set. When this flag is set the bandwidth calculation code will no longer assume that the image buffer size is a worst case and less bandwidth than imagebufsize * fps will be used on average. This patch sets this new flag for 3 drivers: * For spca561 (for rev12a cameras) and nw80x cams as these simply don't work when given less bandwidth than imagebufsize * fps. * For sn9c20x cameras, because these show severy jpeg artifacts when given less bandwidth than imagebufsize * fps and since these are usb2 cameras there is plenty bandwidth anyways.
