Those are the initial patches from my RFCv3 series of MC changes, plus one additional renaming patch and two debug ones. They address the comments received on PATCH v4 series. The first 5 patches on this series ensures that all existing object types (entities, pads and links) will have an unique ID, as agreed at the MC workshop. The next two patches add two debug functions, that helps with the tests of the MC changes. Both are enabled only if DEBUG or dynamic debug is enabled. The first one just help to identify when the media_device register, remove and unregister functions are called. It helps to identify if those events happen before or after object creation. The second one is more interesting: it hooks at the object init and remove functions and dump what's there at the new object when it got created. This is very useful to test the future patches, as we'll be able to track any topology changes. Also, it demonstates the capability of the functions media_gobj_init() and media_gobj_remove() to track topology changes. Tracking topology changes is fundamental for the new API, in order to implement G_TOPOLOGY ioctl. They should contain, in the future, a callback to warn the several drivers envolved at the MC topology build about topology changes. The last patch on this preparation series is just a renaming patch, that will avoid mess when future patches introduce the entity->interface links. They're tested using the cx231xx V4L2 support.
