Hi Sakari, Hans, Mauro,
What is the status on this patch-set?
Thanks,
Steve

This patchset converts the imx-media driver and its dependent
subdevs to use subdev notifiers.
There are a couple shortcomings in v4l2-core that prevented
subdev notifiers from working correctly in imx-media:
1. v4l2_async_notifier_fwnode_parse_endpoint() treats a fwnode
endpoint that is not connected to a remote device as an error.
But in the case of the video-mux subdev, this is not an error,
it is OK if some of the mux inputs have no connection. Also,
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt explicitly
states that the 'remote-endpoint' property is optional. So the first
patch is a small modification to ignore empty endpoints in
v4l2_async_notifier_fwnode_parse_endpoint() and allow
__v4l2_async_notifier_parse_fwnode_endpoints() to continue to
parse the remaining port endpoints of the device.
2. In the imx-media graph, multiple subdevs will encounter the same
upstream subdev (such as the imx6-mipi-csi2 receiver), and so
v4l2_async_notifier_parse_fwnode_endpoints() will add imx6-mipi-csi2
multiple times. This is treated as an error by
v4l2_async_notifier_register() later.
To get around this problem, add an v4l2_async_notifier_add_subdev()
which first verifies the provided asd does not already exist in the
given notifier asd list or in other registered notifiers. If the asd
exists, the function returns -EEXIST and it's up to the caller to
decide if that is an error (in imx-media case it is never an error).
Patches 2-4 deal with adding that support.
3. Patch 5 adds v4l2_async_register_fwnode_subdev(), which is a
convenience function for parsing a subdev's fwnode port endpoints
for connected remote subdevs, registering a subdev notifier, and
then registering the sub-device itself.
The remaining patches update the subdev drivers to register a
subdev notifier with endpoint parsing, and the changes to imx-media
to support that.

History:
v3:
- code optimization in asd_equal(), and remove unneeded braces,
suggested by Sakari Ailus.
- add a NULL asd pointer check to v4l2_async_notifier_asd_valid().
- fix an error-out path in v4l2_async_register_fwnode_subdev() that
forgot to put device.
v2:
- don't pass an empty endpoint to the parse_endpoint callback,
v4l2_async_notifier_fwnode_parse_endpoint() now just ignores them
and returns success.
- Fix a couple compile warnings and errors seen in i386 and sh archs.
