Forward events from a sub-device to its list of reachable video
devices.
Note this will queue the event to a video device even if there is
no actual _enabled_ media path from the sub-device to the video device.
So a future improvement is to skip the video device if there is no enabled
path to it from the sub-device. The entity->pipe pointer can't be
used for this check because in imx-media a sub-device can be a
member to more than one streaming pipeline at a time.
You explain what you are doing, but I am missing an explanation of *why*
this is needed.
Ok, I'll add more explanation.

This part of the patch adds event support to the capture device, can't this be
split up into a separate patch? It seems to be useful in its own right.
Ok, I will split this up. The first patch will add the
(un)subscribe_event callbacks to the capture device, and the second
patch will forward subdev events.

Which events do you want to forward?
Shouldn't any/all subdev events be forwarded?
I would also prefer to allow userland to subscribe to any events that a
subdevice might generate. In other words, imx-media will allow the user
to subscribe to, and receive any events that might be generated by
subdevices.
E.g. forwarding control events
doesn't seem right, but other events may be useful.
The imx capture devices inherit controls from the subdevices. If an
inherited control is changed via the capture device, will _two_ control
events be generated (one from the subdevice and one from the capture
device)? Or will only one event get generated to the capture device?
Same question goes when changing an inherited control from the subdevice
nodes.
Are those events
also appearing on the v4l-subdevX device? And if so, should they?
How do we know what subdevices a future imx-based system might attach to
the media graph? That's why I think it makes sense to forward any/all
events from subdevices.
