The functions that set up async sub-devices can be called multiple times (on separate references). This is quite alike setting up a control handler really, so I adopted the same pattern. If there is a failure, how many async sub-devices should be cleaned up, if there have been async sub-devices already set up before calling this function? -- Regards, Sakari Ailus e-mail: sakari.ai...@iki.fi
