NAK, Ideally the application should go in the following manner,
you open the device say example /dev/video0 , then you issue
a VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT IOCTL,  this will enumerate the inputs
then you do  VIDIOC_S_INPUT this will select the input device
so when this IOCTL is called vpif_s_input() is called in vpif_capture
driver this function will internally call the vpif_set_input() which
will set the iface for you on line 1327.

In the probe it calls vpif_set_input() to select input 0 as a default device.

Hope this clears your doubt.
