Instead of allocating a notifier in v4l2_async_register_fwnode_subdev(),
have the caller provide one. This allows the caller to implement
notifier ops (bind, unbind).

The caller is now responsible for first initializing its notifier with a
call to v4l2_async_notifier_init().

Instead of improving v4l2_async_register_fwnode_subdev(), could you convert
the users (IMX driver in this case) to call the preferred APIs instead?

I presume you mean using v4l2_async_notifier_add_fwnode_remote_subdev(). 
Ok, I'll convert to use that API.

  As
the lines below show, v4l2_async_register_fwnode_subdev() has only two
users left --- the other one of which is the IMX driver. After converting
these two, we could just remove this API.

See e.g. drivers/media/pci/intel/ipu3/ipu3-cio2.c and
drivers/media/platform/omap3isp/isp.c for examples.
