The goal of this series is to make the API more consistent, also fixing all the drivers which are currently misusing the API. With this change, the v4l2-async functions that add subdevices to a notifier have the same semantics, that is they all allocate a struct v4l2_async_subdev, and take a size argument for drivers to embed struct v4l2_async_subdev in a larger struct. This makes the struct v4l2_async_subdev allocation model more consistent, simpler to understand, and harder to misuse. The V4L2 sub-devices documentation, as well as the kernel-doc are also improved a bit, clarifying the API. Finally, all the drivers previously using v4l2_async_notifier_add_subdev are converted to proper helpers, I have tried to convert the drivers in the least invasive way, keeping the original code as much as possible. In many cases, specially the old drivers, there is some bitrot and some room for more cleanups, which is beyond the scope of this patchset. I'd like to make v4l2_async_notifier_add_subdev() internal, which might be possible once the (currently deprecated) v4l2_async_notifier_parse_fwnode_endpoints() function is removed. For the time being, I'm proposing to rename v4l2_async_notifier_add_subdev to __v4l2_async_notifier_add_subdev, so it's clearer the function is not really meant for drivers to use.
