I've reviewed these but not tetsed them.  The functionally look OK.

I share Lawrence's concern about __err being considered a reserved
library symbol somewhere in the kernel sometime in the future, and still
having a good probability for name clashing  

However

git grep __err reveals that __err is used in a few places as a local
variable with block scope in a macro: the same manner as it is used in
this patch.  I didn't find a global declaration of __err in the
kernel.

git grep '[^_a-zA-Z0-9]_err[^_a-z:]' | grep -v goto  also shows that
_err is popular in macros, but also with no apparent global
declaration in the kernel.

git grep '[^_a-zA-Z0-9]_err_[^a-z]' | grep -v goto shows that _err_
is not used anywhere in the kernel.

 Prefix them with an underscore to avoid name clashing.

Identifiers that begin with a double underscore (as you have used) are
reserved for standard headers and defining them invokes undefined
behaviour.

From the C99 standard para 7.1.3
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1124.pdf :

All identifiers that begin with an underscore and either an uppercase
letter or another underscore are always reserved for any use.
...
No other identifiers are reserved. If the program declares or defines
an identifier in a context in which it is reserved (other than as
allowed by 7.1.4), or defines a reserved identifier as a macro name, the
behavior is undefined.

It is preferable to use a single underscore and a lowercase prefix such
as the library or header name e.g. _v4l_sd, _v4l_err, etc.

Aside - the copious use of macros encourages leakage of identifiers and
often breaks encapsulation as here, where the implementation details of
subdevs are exported.  A range of inline accessor/mutator functions
would be preferable.

[PATCH v2] V4L2: avoid name conflicts in macros

sd and err are too common names to be used in macros for local variables.
