Nope ... My suggestion in the previous mail (regarding dropping the configured
flag in place of using the pipe->state s) doesn't work because the pipeline is
set to be running before the vsp1_video_pipeline_run() gets the opportunity to
check it.

We could extend the states to include a 'VSP1_PIPELINE_STARTING' in between
_STOPPED, and _RUNNING, but I think that's more complicated as the state
machine across the whole code will be affected.

(which is why I chose to add a flag in the first place)

Meanwhile, renaming pipe_config to stream_config seems to make sense as it
stores the stream configuration (non-runtime) parameters.
