The API reference documents that the KEEP_CONFIG flag tells the configuration should not be propatgated by the driver whereas the interface documentation (dev-subdev.xml) categorically prohibited any changes to the rest of the pipeline. The latter makes no sense, since it would severely limit the usefulness of the KEEP_CONFIG flag. Correct the documentation in dev-subddev.xml.
