Guennadi Liakhovetski June 14, 2013, 7:08 p.m. UTC
Add support for asynchronous subdevice probing, using the v4l2-async API.
The legacy synchronous mode is still supported too, which allows to
gradually update drivers and platforms. The selected approach adds a
notifier for each struct soc_camera_device instance, i.e. for each video
device node, even when there are multiple such instances registered with a
single soc-camera host simultaneously.

Signed-off-by: Guennadi Liakhovetski <g.liakhovetski@gmx.de>

v11: adapted to the changed field name from patch #16
