Hi folks,

We have a large influx of new, unmerged, drivers that are now parsing
fwnode endpoints and each one of them is doing this a little bit
differently. The needs are still exactly the same for the graph data
structure is device independent. This is still a non-trivial task and the
majority of the driver implementations are buggy, just buggy in different
ways.

Facilitate parsing endpoints by adding a convenience function for parsing
the endpoints, and make the omap3isp and rcar-vin drivers use them as an
example.

since v4:

- Prepend the set with three documentation fixes.

- The driver's async struct must begin with struct v4l2_async_subdev. Fix this
  for omap3isp and document it.

- Improve documentation for new functions.

- Don't use devm_ family of functions for allocating memory. Introduce
  v4l2_async_notifier_release() to release memory resources.

- Rework both v4l2_async_notifier_fwnode_parse_endpoints() and
  v4l2_async_notifier_fwnode_parse_endpoint() and the local functions they
  call. This should make the code cleaner. Despite the name, for linking
  and typical usage reasons the functions remain in v4l2-fwnode.c.

- Convert rcar-vin to use v4l2_async_notifier_fwnode_parse_endpoint().

- Use kvmalloc() for allocating the notifier's subdevs array.

- max_subdevs argument for notifier_realloc is now the total maximum
  number of subdevs, not the number of available subdevs.

- Use fwnode_device_is_available() to make sure the device actually
  exists.

- Move the note telling v4l2_async_notifier_fwnode_parse_endpoints()
  should not be used by new drivers to the last patch adding
  v4l2_async_notifier_fwnode_parse_endpoint().

since v3:

- Rebase on current mediatree master.

since v2:

- Rebase on CCP2 support patches.

- Prepend a patch cleaning up omap3isp driver a little.

since v1:

- The first patch has been merged (it was a bugfix).

- In anticipation that the parsing can take place over several iterations,
  take the existing number of async sub-devices into account when
  re-allocating an array of async sub-devices.

- Rework the first patch to better anticipate parsing single endpoint at a
  time by a driver.

- Add a second patch that adds a function for parsing endpoints one at a
  time based on port and endpoint numbers.
