Subject: media: Documentation: Additional streams generally don't harm capture
Author:  Sakari Ailus <sakari.ai...@linux.intel.com>
Date:    Thu Sep 21 14:51:30 2023 +0300

Having extra streams on the source end of the link that cannot be captured
by the sink sub-device generally are not an issue, at least not on CSI-2
bus. Still document that there may be hardware-specific limitations. For
example on parallel bus this might not work on all cases.
