media: add helpers for memory-to-memory media controller
A memory-to-memory pipeline device consists in three
entities: two DMA engine and one video processing entities.
The DMA engine entities are linked to a V4L interface.
This commit add a new v4l2_m2m_{un}register_media_controller
API to register this topology.
For instance, a typical mem2mem device topology would
look like this:
Device topology
- entity 1: source (1 pad, 1 link)
type Node subtype V4L flags 0
pad0: Source
-> "proc":1 [ENABLED,IMMUTABLE]
- entity 3: proc (2 pads, 2 links)
type Node subtype Unknown flags 0
pad0: Source
-> "sink":0 [ENABLED,IMMUTABLE]
pad1: Sink
<- "source":0 [ENABLED,IMMUTABLE]
- entity 6: sink (1 pad, 1 link)
type Node subtype V4L flags 0
pad0: Sink
<- "proc":0 [ENABLED,IMMUTABLE]
