Can you ? You need to call the operation on the pad of the connected
entity that is connected to tbe sink pad of the IP entity. That would be
the source pad of the CSI-2 RX in this case, but it can't be hardcoded
as it could also bethe source pad of a parallel sensor (once support for
that will be implemented). I think you therefore need to keep the
media_pad_remote_pad_unique() call.
