Hi,

this version of the OF graph helper move series further addresses a few of
Tomi's and Sylwester's comments.

Changes since v5:
 - Fixed spelling errors and a wrong device node name in the link section
 - Added parentless previous endpoint's full name to warning
 - Fixed documentation comment for of_graph_parse_endpoint
 - Unrolled for-loop in of_graph_get_remote_port_parent

Philipp Zabel (8):
  [media] of: move graph helpers from drivers/media/v4l2-core to
    drivers/of
  Documentation: of: Document graph bindings
  of: Warn if of_graph_get_next_endpoint is called with the root node
  of: Reduce indentation in of_graph_get_next_endpoint
  [media] of: move common endpoint parsing to drivers/of
  of: Implement simplified graph binding for single port devices
  of: Document simplified graph binding for single port devices
  of: Warn if of_graph_parse_endpoint is called with the root node
So, as I've pointed out, I don't agree with the API, as it's too limited
and I can't use it, but as this series is (mostly) about moving the
current API to a common place, it's fine for me.

Thanks. I'll be happy to help expanding the API to parse ports
individually, once this gets accepted.

Mauro, Guennadi, are you fine with how this turned out? I'd like to get
your acks again, for the changed location.
From my side, there's nothing on such code that is V4L2 specific.
Moving it to drivers/of makes sense on my eyes.

Acked-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <redacted>
I'll need those acks before I can even think about queuing up the
imx-drm bits.

Another way to deal with this is if this gets pulled into the V4L tree
from Philipp's git tree, I can also pull that in myself.  What mustn't
happen is for these to be committed independently as patches.
If everyone agrees, I actually prefer have this patch applied on my tree,
in order to avoid some potential merge conflicts at the merge window,
as we might have other drivers and changes there touching on those API
calls (I'm aware of a series of patches from Sylwester with some DT
stuff on it. Not sure if it would be affected by such changes or not).
