[v7,10/44,media] media: rename the function that create pad links

Message ID f095b87884d435e296a455ab07a9951a74c0c3a6.1440359643.git.mchehab@osg.samsung.com (mailing list archive)

Now that a link can be either between two different graph
objects, we'll need to add more functions to create links.
So, rename the existing one that create links only between
two pads as media_create_pad_link().

No functional changes.

This patch was created via this shell script:
	for i in $(find drivers/media -name '*.[ch]' -type f) $(find drivers/staging/media -name '*.[ch]' -type f) $(find include/ -name '*.h' -type f) ; do sed s,media_entity_create_link,media_create_pad_link,g <$i >a && mv a $i; done

Is this an incomplete sentence. Should it read: "either between
two different graph objects or two pads" ?

Didn't want to experiment with Coccinelle?? :)

That would be redundant, as pad is a graph object ;)

I use Coccinelle, but only when I need more complex changes, as
Coccinelle may mangle with comments.

Renamed the patch description to:

	With the new API, a link can be either between two PADs or between an interface
	and an entity. So, we need to use a better name for the function that create
	links between two pads.

	So, rename the such function to media_create_pad_link().

	No functional changes.

	This patch was created via this shell script:
		for i in $(find drivers/media -name '*.[ch]' -type f) $(find drivers/staging/media -name '*.[ch]' -type f) $(find include/ -name '*.h' -type f) ; do sed s,media_entity_create_link,media_create_pad_link,g <$i >a && mv a $i; done
