Subject: [PATCH v3] media: add support for decoder as one of media entity types

From: Manjunath Hadli <manjunath.hadli@...com>

A lot of SOCs including Texas Instruments Davinci family mainly use
video decoders as input devices. This patch adds a flag
'MEDIA_ENT_T_V4L2_SUBDEV_DECODER' media entity type for decoder's.
Along side updates the documentation for this media entity type.
