This will be called when user process opens the corresponding /dev/v4l-subdev*
device node. More details on the v4l2 sub-device interface can be found at [1],
[2]. The device node is created by an aggregate media device driver, once all
required sub-devices are registered to it.
The above v4l2_subdev_internal_ops::open() implementation is pretty simple,
it just sets V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_TRY format to some initial default value.
That's a per file handle value, so each process opening a set of sub-devices
can try pipeline configuration independently.
