You asked the samething for v9 so I will copy paste the same reply :-)

    Sakari asked the same thing in v4 :-)

    In short no its not needed please see Geert's response [1]. If I 
    recall correctly this was also discussed in more detail in another 
    thread for some other driver whit a bit longer answer saying that it
    pm_runtime_get_sync() fails you have big problems but I can't find 
    that thread now :-(

You also asked a related question to this in v9 as a start I will copy 
in that reply.

    Media link changes are not allowed when any VIN in the group are
    streaming so this should not be an issue.

And to compliment that. This function is only valid for a VIN which has 
the CHSEL register which currently is VIN0 and VIN4. It can only be 
modified when a media link is enabled. Catching media links are only 
allowed when all VIN in the system are _not_ streaming. And VNMC_VUP is 
only enabled when a VIN is streaming so there is no need for locking 
here.
