I don't think that requires a reference from subdevs to hosts in the DT. The subdev will need the host to be probed before a clock can be available so you won't be able to access the hardware in the probe() function in the generic case. You will need to wait until the registered() subdev operation is called, at which point the host can be accessed through the v4l2_device. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
