I usually need the struct video_device 'priv' field to obtain the main 
structure using the new v4l1 interface (video_devdata() in particular). On 
open , for example:

int open(struct file* filp, ..., ....)
{
        ...
        struct my_device* camera = 
                                       (struct my_device*)video_devdata(filp)->priv;
        ...
}

I think it is more clear this way...
