+Subject: [PATCH] core: Update checks for disable_rpi_features option
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Based on the original commit that added the sync feature there
+were a few more options that needed the disable_rpi_features
+code conditionals to ensure compilation against upstream
+libcamera so add them in to ensure this works.
+
+Fixes:
+../core/rpicam_app.cpp: In member function ‘void RPiCamApp::StartCamera()’:
+../core/rpicam_app.cpp:642:78: error: ‘controls::rpi’ has not been declared
+  642 |         if (!controls_.get(controls::ScalerCrop) && !controls_.get(controls::rpi::ScalerCrops))
+      |                                                                              ^~~
+../core/rpicam_app.cpp:673:49: error: ‘controls::rpi’ has not been declared
+  673 |                         controls_.set(controls::rpi::ScalerCrops, libcamera::Span<const Rectangle>(crops.data(), crops.size()));
+      |                                                 ^~~
