That's what I expected.

Exposing those functions to drivers not supporting V4L2 subdev uAPI is 
not a bad idea but it would make more sense to me if we also updated potential 
users.  Otherwise I just don't believe anyone will care for as long as a 
driver is not refreshed to support MC and V4L2 subdev uAPI.

I think that as long as we already have in place the same checks performed by 
v4l2_subdev_call() which seems the only user entry point to a subdevice 
driver, invalid cfg or pad values you are trying to catch here will never be 
passed unless the driver performs unusual operations and, moreover, is 
internally broken.

Dropping this check from here and below makes sense to me anyway, for the same 
reason as explained above.

If we agree that correctness of cfg and pad has already been verified, this 
change and similar below, perfectly correct otherwise, seem of limited value 
to me.
