 mgb4 sysfs interface
 ====================

 The mgb4 driver provides a sysfs interface, that is used to configure video
 stream related parameters (some of them must be set properly before the v4l2
 device can be opened) and obtain the video device/stream status.

 There are two types of parameters - global / PCI card related, found under
 ``/sys/class/video4linux/videoX/device`` and module specific found under
 ``/sys/class/video4linux/videoX``.

 ====================
 mgb4 mtd partitions
 ====================

 The mgb4 driver creates a MTD device with two partitions:
  - mgb4-fw.X - FPGA firmware.
  - mgb4-data.X - Factory settings, e.g. card serial number.

 The *mgb4-fw* partition is writable and is used for FW updates, *mgb4-data* is
 read-only. The *X* attached to the partition name represents the card number.
 Depending on the CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONED_MASTER kernel configuration, you may
 also have a third partition named *mgb4-flash* available in the system. This
 partition represents the whole, unpartitioned, card's FLASH memory and one should
 not fiddle with it...

 ====================
 mgb4 iio (triggers)
 ====================

 The mgb4 driver creates an Industrial I/O (IIO) device that provides trigger and
 signal level status capability. The following scan elements are available:

 **activity**:
 	The trigger levels and pending status.

 	| bit 1 - trigger 1 pending
 	| bit 2 - trigger 2 pending
 	| bit 5 - trigger 1 level
 	| bit 6 - trigger 2 level

 **timestamp**:
 	The trigger event timestamp.

 The iio device can operate either in "raw" mode where you can fetch the signal
 levels (activity bits 5 and 6) using sysfs access or in triggered buffer mode.
 In the triggered buffer mode you can follow the signal level changes (activity
 bits 1 and 2) using the iio device in /dev. If you enable the timestamps, you
 will also get the exact trigger event time that can be matched to a video frame
 (every mgb4 video frame has a timestamp with the same clock source).

 *Note: although the activity sample always contains all the status bits, it makes
 no sense to get the pending bits in raw mode or the level bits in the triggered
 buffer mode - the values do not represent valid data in such case.*

	buffer mode - the values do not represent valid data in such case.*
