Nitpick: instead of having #ifndef inside the enum, I would instead
place both V4L2_COLORSPACE_ADOBERGB and V4L2_XFER_FUNC_ADOBERGB on
a separate #define, e. g:

/*
 * Deprecated names for Optional RGB colorspace (IEC 61966-2)
 *
 * WARNING: Please don't use it on your code, as those can be removed
 * from Kernelspace in the future.
 */
#ifndef __KERNEL__
# define V4L2_COLORSPACE_ADOBERGB V4L2_COLORSPACE_OPRGB
# define V4L2_XFER_FUNC_ADOBERGB  V4L2_XFER_FUNC_OPRGB
#endif

There are two reasons for that:

1) by adding them inside enums and not documenting, you may
   end by having warnings;

2) as you mentioned on patch 0/5, one of the goals is to
   "avoid possible future trademark complaints."

So, better to add a clear warning at the Kernel that we may need
to remove it in the future.

Thanks,
