This small patch series comes from a mild annoyance I experienced during a recent patch review, where I wanted to ask for a pointer to a v4l2_subdev_state used to access the state in a read-only fashion to be made const. This wasn't possible as the state accessors functions take a non-const state pointer, in order to return pointers to mutable formats and selection rectangles. Patch 1/2 improves the state accessors to support const states, in the same wait as the recently introduced container_of_const() macro. Bikeshedding of the internal macro and function names is expected. Patch 2/2 then shows how this can be used in one driver. Compared to v2, patch 1/2 uses explicit types as _Generic() selectors, and fixes an issue with the const cast of the value.
