This series adds multi-stream support for Cadence CSI2RX and TI CSI2RX
Shim drivers.

PATCH 1:	Runtime Power Management for Cadence CSI2RX
PATCH 2-7:	Support multiple DMA contexts/video nodes in TI CSI2RX
PATCH 8-9:	Use get_frame_desc to propagate virtual channel information
		across Cadence and TI CSI-RX subdevs
PATCH 10-12:	Use new multi-stream APIs across the drivers to support
		multiplexed cameras from sources like UB960 (FPDLink)
PATCH 13:	Optimize stream on by submitting all queued buffers to DMA

This applies on top of today's linux-next (next-20240626)

This series is based on top of next-20240626

(also tested rebase with media_stage.git master)

Changes in v2:

- Change the multi-camera capture architecture to be similar to that of
    Tomi's RPi5 FE series, where the driver will wait for userspace to
    start streaming on all "actively routed" video nodes before starting
    streaming on the source. This simplifies things a lot from the HW
    perspective, which might run into deadlocks due to a shared FIFO
    between multiple DMA channels.

- Drop a few fixes that were posted separately and are already merged
- Fix dtschema warnings reported by Rob on [02/13]
- Fix warnings for uninitialized `used_vc` variable in cdns-csi2rx.c
- Return -EBUSY if someone updates routes for j721e-csi2rx subdev while
    streaming
- Only allow single-streams to be routed to the source pads (linked to
    video nodes) of the j721e-csi2rx device
- Squash the patches marked "SQUASH" in the v1 RFC series

- Link to RFC (v1):

You have based this series on top of your private branch. Don't do that.
Base on top of a kernel tag, or a commonly known tree (linux-media-stage for
example), and preferably mention the base in the cover letter.

The base commit SHA populated by b4 is the same as next-20240626 as
mentioned above

Ah, right, my bad. I took your branch https://github.com/jailuthra/linux/commits/b4/multistream/, and assumed it's the one you used to send these patches. In that branch these patches are not based on linux-next.

https://gitlab.com/linux-kernel/linux-next/-/commits/df9574a57d02b265322e77fb8628d4d33641dda9

I chose to not use media-stage as the base, but this series applies
cleanly (and compiles) on top of that as well.

I'd still recommend media-stage, as that's where these patches would be merged (or just linux-media). linux-next is good for testing, but I wouldn't normally base patches on top of that, or at last send patches based on that.

Your private branch contains e.g. dtsos needed for testing. If you have such
a branch, you should point to it in the cover letter as it's valuable for
reviewers/testers.

Ah my bad, I missed mentioning my github branch that can be used for
testing the content of this series. It contains some DTSOs and defconfig
updates, along with support for FPDLink/V3Link sensors.

https://github.com/jailuthra/linux/commits/b4/multistream/

Jfyi, I've tested this with am62a and arducam's fpdlink board with imx219 sensors, and works fine for me.

I only tested with pixel streams, I'd like to also add all the patches needed for embedded data and test that (I think all of those have been posted to the lists), but I don't think I'll have time for that right now.

Only base on top of a private branch if your patches compile-time depend on
something from there, and in that case point to the branch and mention this
dependency clearly in the cover letter.

Makes sense, will take extra care to mention the dependencies and base
branch from next version.
