Hello Laurent,

Thanks for your review.

That is an interesting question I thought about it but decided against 
it, at lest for now. The design we have is that each source pad of the 
R-Car CSI-2 subdevice is fixed to a specific VC (source pad 0 -> VC0, 
source pad 1 - > VC1, etc). And with this patch we preserve this 
behavior.

Once we have the internal routing and multiplexed stream API upstream we 
can evolve this and still keep the API consistent. As a first step we 
expose the internal routing true the new API, read-only as that how it 
is implemented today and then on-top of that we can decide if we want to 
make it configurable from user-space, or not.
