include/media/v4l2-subdev.h states

 * @enable_streams: Enable the streams defined in streams_mask on the given
 *      source pad. Subdevs that implement this operation must use the active
 *      state management provided by the subdev core (enabled through a call to
 *      v4l2_subdev_init_finalize() at initialization time). Do not call
 *      directly, use v4l2_subdev_enable_streams() instead.

This patch looks good to me.
