As discussed for video_device parent the usb_interface should be used. This has the advantage that v4l2_device_register creates meaningfull names, for example "hdpvr usb2-3:1.0" instead of "usb 2-3". This patch series updates Documentation/video4linux/v4l2-framework.txt and hopefully all usb drivers uing v4l2_device. The cx231xx and au0828 drivers are already overriding v4l2_device.name with a driver name and a device counter. I removed that code since I suspect it was only added to get meaningful names. If the current names are preferred just NAK the patches removing that code. regards, Janne
