Aren't these enumerations too?

#define V4L2_CID_3A_LOCK			(V4L2_CID_CAMERA_CLASS_BASE+27)
#define V4L2_LOCK_EXPOSURE			(1 << 0)
#define V4L2_LOCK_WHITE_BALANCE			(1 << 1)
#define V4L2_LOCK_FOCUS				(1 << 2)

#define V4L2_CID_AUTO_FOCUS_START		(V4L2_CID_CAMERA_CLASS_BASE+28)
#define V4L2_CID_AUTO_FOCUS_STOP		(V4L2_CID_CAMERA_CLASS_BASE+29)
#define V4L2_CID_AUTO_FOCUS_STATUS		(V4L2_CID_CAMERA_CLASS_BASE+30)
#define V4L2_AUTO_FOCUS_STATUS_IDLE		(0 << 0)
#define V4L2_AUTO_FOCUS_STATUS_BUSY		(1 << 0)
#define V4L2_AUTO_FOCUS_STATUS_REACHED		(1 << 1)
#define V4L2_AUTO_FOCUS_STATUS_FAILED		(1 << 2)

Anyway, I'm happy to change them to plain numbers.
