struct media_devnode is currently embedded at struct media_device.
While this works fine during normal usage, it leads to a race
condition during devnode unregister. the problem is that drivers
assume that, after calling media_device_unregister(), the struct
that contains media_device can be freed. This is not true, as it
can't be freed until userspace closes all opened /dev/media devnodes.
In other words, if the media devnode is still open, and media_device
gets freed, any call to an ioctl will make the core to try to access
struct media_device, with will cause an use-after-free and even GPF.
Fix this by dynamically allocating the struct media_devnode and only
freeing it when it is safe.

The legacy media controller userspace API exposes entity types that
carry both type and function information. The new API replaces the type
with a function. It preserves backward compatibility by defining legacy
functions for the existing types and using them in drivers.
This works fine, as long as newer entity functions won't be added.
Unfortunately, some tools, like media-ctl with --print-dot argument
rely on the now legacy MEDIA_ENT_T_V4L2_SUBDEV and MEDIA_ENT_T_DEVNODE
numeric ranges to identify what entities will be shown.
Also, if the entity doesn't match those ranges, it will ignore the
major/minor information on devnodes, and won't be getting the devnode
name via udev or sysfs.
As we're now adding devices outside the old range, the legacy ioctl
needs to map the new entity functions into a type at the old range,
or otherwise we'll have a regression.
Detected on all released media-ctl versions (e. g. versions <= 1.10).
Fix this by deriving the type from the function to emulate the legacy
API if the function isn't in the legacy functions range.

The G_TOPOLOGY ioctl is used to get a graph topology and since in the
future a graph can be dynamically updated, there is a way to know the
topology version so userspace can be aware that the graph has changed.
The version 0 is reserved to indicate that the graph is static (i.e no
graphs updates since the media device was registered).
So, now that the media device initialization and registration has been
split and the media device node is not exposed to user-space until all
the entities have been registered and links created, it is safe to set
a topology version 0 in media_device_register().

The media device node is registered and so made visible to user-space
before entities are registered and links created which means that the
media graph obtained by user-space could be only partially enumerated
if that happens too early before all the graph has been created.
To avoid this race condition, split the media init and registration
in separate functions and only register the media device node when
all the pending subdevices have been registered, either explicitly
by the driver or asynchronously using v4l2_async_register_subdev().
The media_device_register() had a check for drivers not filling dev
and model fields but all drivers in mainline set them and not doing
it will be a driver bug so change the function return to void and
add a BUG_ON() for dev being NULL instead.
Also, add a media_device_cleanup() function that will destroy the
graph_mutex that is initialized in media_device_init().

The MC next gen API sends objects to userspace grouped by

In the case of pads and links, in order to improve performance

separate linked lists at MC.
If we don't do that, we would need this kind of interaction
to send data to userspace (code is in structured english):
for each entity:
for each pad:
store pads
for each entity:
for each link:
store link
for each interface:
for each link:
store link
With would require one nested loop for pads and two nested
loops for links. By using separate linked lists for them,
just one loop would be enough.

The entire logic that represent graph links were developed on a
time where there were no needs to dynamic remove links. So,
although links are created/removed one by one via some
functions, they're stored as an array inside the entity struct.
As the array may grow, there's a logic inside the code that
checks if the amount of space is not enough to store
the needed links. If it isn't the core uses krealloc()
to change the size of the link, with is bad, as it
leaves the memory fragmented.
So, convert links into a list.
Also, currently, both source and sink entities need the link
at the graph traversal logic inside media_entity. So there's
a logic duplicating all links. That makes it to spend
twice the memory needed. This is not a big deal for today's
usage, where the number of links are not big.
Yet, if during the MC workshop discussions, it was said that
IIO graphs could have up to 4,000 entities. So, we may
want to remove the duplication on some future. The problem
is that it would require a separate linked list to store
the backlinks inside the entity, or to use a more complex
algorithm to do graph backlink traversal, with is something
that the current graph traversal inside the core can't cope
with. So, let's postpone a such change if/when it is actually
needed.
It should also be noticed that the media_link structure uses
44 bytes on 32-bit architectures and 84 bytes on 64-bit
architecture. It will thus be allocated out of the 64-bytes and
96-bytes pools respectively. That's a 12.5% memory waste on
64-bit architectures and 31.25% on 32-bit architecture.
A linked list is less efficient than an array in this case, but
this could later be optimized if we can get rid of the reverse
links (with would reduce memory allocation by 50%).

While with the current implementation, it is possible to create

The struct media_entity has a .parent field that stores a pointer
to the parent struct media_device. But recently a media_gobj was
embedded into the entities and since struct media_gojb already has
a pointer to a struct media_device in the .mdev field, the .parent
field becomes redundant and can be removed.
This patch replaces all the usage of .parent by .graph_obj.mdev so
that field will become unused and can be removed on a later patch.
No functional changes.
The transformation was made using the following coccinelle spatch:
