If you dive it into parts like:
getting a idea about v4l1
understanding the current code,
getting a idea about v4l2
transforming the code
testing
you can get a feeling for the project

It can be as simple as just changing the calls, but I fear that there 
can be some hidden traps. I also think that some parts are already changed.
The code is well organized and documented, so the understanding the 
current code shouldn't be that hard.

If you are interested want please give it a try.
I can help with testing.

auf hoffentlich bald,
