This doesn't help:

The problem is the "platform-capture-subsystem-video-index" entries.
These themselves change order. For instance, I now have:
- entity 72: ipu1_csi0 capture (1 pad, 1 link)
type Node subtype V4L flags 0
device node name /dev/video6
which means it's platform-capture-subsystem-video-index4. Before, it
was platform-capture-subsystem-video-index2.
