mainlining shenanigans

Drivers typically extend the v4l2_async_subdev structure by embedding it in a driver-specific structure, to store per-subdev custom data. The v4l2_async_subdev instances are freed by the v4l2-async framework, which makes this mechanism cumbersome to use safely when custom data needs special treatment to be destroyed (such as freeing additional memory, or releasing references to kernel objects). To ease this, add a .destroy() operation to the v4l2_async_notifier_operations structure. The operation is called right before the v4l2_async_subdev is freed, giving drivers a chance to destroy data if needed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
