Hello Hans,

The difference that patch 8 is making is that the 'old way' of 
configuring the ISC is no longer possible.

Patch 4 makes the ISC 'mc-ready' with all entities, links, but the old 
way still works (meaning that the top driver will call s_fmt down to the 
subdev ).
After patch 8, the driver no longer has this support at all, and 
validates links at start_streaming, and no longer sets anything to the 
subdev, just validates the config that the subdev already has.
So one reason that I had things in two patches was that patch 8 makes 
this big change that also makes userspace behave differently and has to 
configure all the subdevs and media pipeline.

If you feel patch 4 and patch 8 should be squashed, I can do it, definitely.

Let me know how to proceed ?

Thanks,
Eugen
