[PATCH 3/3] v4l2-fwnode: Document changes usage patterns of v4l2_fwnode_endpoint_parse

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Document that it is possible to provide defaults for multiple bus types to
v4l2_fwnode_endpoint_parse and v4l2_fwnode_endpoint_alloc_parse. Also
underline the fact that detecting the bus type without bus-type property
is only for the old drivers.
