Subject: [PATCH 0/4] media: add v4l2_pipeline_stream_{enable,disable} helpers

Hi,

Media drivers need to iterate through the pipeline and call .s_stream()
callbacks in the subdevices.

Instead of repeating code, add helpers for this.

These helpers will go walk through the pipeline only visiting entities
that participates in the stream, i.e. it follow link from sink to source
(and not the opposite).

Which means that in a topology like this https://bit.ly/3b2MxjI
calling v4l2_pipeline_stream_enable() from rkisp1_mainpath won't call
.s_stream(true) for rkisp1_resizer_selfpath.

stream_count variable was added in v4l2_subdevice to handle nested calls
to the helpers.
This is useful when the driver allows streaming from more then one
capture device sharing subdevices.

This patch came from the error I was facing when multistreaming from
rkisp1 driver, where stopping one capture would call s_stream(false) in
the pipeline, causing a stall in the second capture device.

Also, the vimc patch https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10948833/ won't
be required with this patchset.

This patchset was tested on rkisp1 and vimc drivers.

Other cleanup might be possible (but I won't add in this patchset as I
don't have the hw to test):

Overview of patches:
====================

Patch 1/4 adds a new iterator function to follow links from sink to
source only.

Path 2/4 adds the helpers in v4l2-common.c, allowing nested calls by
adding stream_count in the subdevice struct.

Patch 3/4 cleanup rkisp1 driver to use the helpers.

Patch 4/4 cleanup vimc driver to use the helpers.
