For the audio case, I did some digging into this a bit and It's worth noting that this behavior varies by driver (at least on USB). In some cases, the parent points to the USB device, in other cases it points to the USB interface. My original thought was to pick one or the other and make the various drivers consistent, but even that is a challenge since in some cases the audio device was provided by snd-usb-audio (which has no knowledge of the v4l subsystem).
