From 17e484686be2e9ecb88cc7913a4baaf6783275e3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "jean-michel.hautbois@vodalys.com" Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2015 07:21:47 -0300 Subject: [media] v4l2-subdev: allow subdev to send an event to the v4l2_device notify function All drivers use custom notifications, in particular when source changes. The bridge only has to map the subdev that sends it to whatever video node it is connected to.
