There are actually 3 other items that were not listed at the TODO:

- Merge of Sakari patches fixing media graph to work with entities
  with ID > 64;

- Use just one counter for the graph ID range. This patch depends on
  Sakari series;

- Merge of Javier patches that split media devnode register from the
  media_device internal register. Not actually a requirement for
  MC next gen, as it fixes an already existing race condition, but it
  will allow almost for free to have topology_version = 0 as the
  start version, with seems to be a good thing to drivers where the
  topology is always static;

I reviewed both Sakari and Javier series this weekend with a few
comments.

Item addressed. I also sent some patches fixing some kernel-doc left overs.
Now, there are only a few set of functions not documented at
media-entity.h:

- the ones that will be touched by Sakari patches;
- two ancillary functions that will be removed when we unify
  the object ID numberspace.

I'll review those remaining items after merging Sakari's series.

This will actually be addressed after applying Sakari's patch series.
