I got told that in the long run, one should be able to map a device (/dev/mediaN) to it's nodes (/dev/video*). In a way that if we keep going this way, all the media devices can be enumerated from media node rather then a mixed between media nodes and orphaned video nodes. > > The first commit introduces a register/unregister API, > that creates/destroys all the entities and pads needed, > and links them. > > The second commit uses this API to support the vim2m driver. > > Notes > ----- > > * A new device node type is introduced VFL_TYPE_MEM2MEM, > this is mostly done so the video4linux core doesn't > try to register other media controller entities. > > * Also, a new media entity type is introduced.
