Look how we defined the term driver:
Driver
The part of the Linux Kernel that implements support
for a hardware component.
If we define sub-device driver as you're proposing, we're basically
saying that:
sub-device driver == Driver
with is not true.
I guess the proper definition would be, instead:
V4L2 sub-device driver
A driver for a media component whose bus(es) connects it
to the hardware controlled via the V4L2 main driver.
