Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] media: v4l: async: add helper API media_async_register_subdev()
Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2026 17:55:26 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260226-v4l2_init_register-v2-1-902d7140f9fa@nxp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260226-v4l2_init_register-v2-0-902d7140f9fa@nxp.com>
Add the helper API media_async_register_subdev(), which
combines media_entity_pads_init(), v4l2_subdev_init_finalize(), and
v4l2_async_register_subdev() into a single call.
Reduce code duplication and simplify error handling in drivers.
