I finally got around to test these patches eventually, and after some
debugging found this one. I think it's a good idea to have macros to
determine whether an entity exposes a V4L2 sub-device interface but it
should be more robust than is_media_entity_v4l2_subdev() right now is.

Incorrect result can have consequences from a pipeline start failure (due to
a failure in link validation) to memory corruption as struct media_entity
pointer is assumed to be a pointer to a field of another struct.

How about assigning that in V4L2 sub-device / video device registration,
for example?
