That's really ugly :-( The problem should be fixed properly instead of adding 
one more offender.

Can subdev_name be made const instead of blindly casting the full_name pointer 
? If not this is probably unsafe, and if yes it should be done :-)

I'm afraid I have to disappoint Hans here, I don't have code for that yet.

There's two ways to look at s_routing() in my opinion, as the calling driver 
should really not hardcode any knowledge specific to a particular subdev. We 
can either have the calling driver discover the possible routing options at 
runtime through the subdev API, or modify the s_routing() API.
