Re: [PATCH 4/5] v4l2: async: Postpone subdev_notifier registration

Hi Jacopo,

Thank you for the patch,

This seems like a good thing to do at a glance here, but I'll leave contextual
judgement like that to Sakari.

A few minor grammatical nits here and a question on locking.

Upscaled? Is this the right word here ? perhaps 'processed'?

"the complete() call chain cannot be process before the subdevice to which the
notifiers belong has been registered"

Do we need any locking of the notifier object now that it uses a flag and an
'asynchronous' registration ?

It might be OK ... but I haven't processed through the whole usage yet.
