This is a purely cosmetic change. Since the 'subdev' member
points to an array of subdevs it seems more intuitive to name
it in plural form.

Well, I was aware of the fact, that "subdev" is an array and that the 
plural form of "subdev" would be "subdevs" :-) It was kind of a conscious 
choice. I think, both ways can be found in the kernel: using singulars and 
plurals for array names. Whether one of them is better than the other - no 
idea. My personal preference is somewhat with the singular form as in, say 
"subdev array" instead of "subdevs array," i.e. as an adjective, but I 
really don't care all that much :) Feel free to change if that's important 
for you or for others on V4L :)

Thanks
Guennadi

Sorry, I expected this patch to be a bit controversial... :) I agree it
might be a matter of taste, but subdev/num_subdevs pair bothered me quite
a bit so I've decided to post the patch anyway.
If you don't mind that much I'd like to keep that patch in this series.
