[PATCH 2.4.8-pre1 and 2.4.7-ac1] Motion Eye camera driver updates.

From: Stelian Pop (stelian.pop@fr.alcove.com)
Date: Fri Jul 27 2001 - 08:20:00 EST

This patch applies cleanly to either 2.4.8-pre1 or 2.4.7-ac1
and updates the motion eye camera driver to remove an array
from the stack, and slightly optimize the code.

All the credit goes to Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>.

Alan, Linus, please apply.

Stelian.
