[v2,00/11] rcar-vin: Add r8a779a0 support

Hello,

This series adds support for V3U (r8a779a0) to the R-Car VIN driver. The
V3U SoC is different from other Renesas SoCs as a new IP block (the ISP
channel selector) is added between the CSI-2 receiver and the VIN
modules. This new ISP IP deals with CSI-2 channel filtering based on
VC/DT which in turn makes the VIN drivers much simpler with regards to
the media graph. But it also means the rcar-vin driver needs to support
and generate both the generic Gen3 MC-graph and the specific V3U
MC-graph.

The rcar-vin driver intertwines the VIN group concept and the usage of
the media graph into a single implementation. This needs to be broken
apart before the new V3U support can be added. The first 01/11 - 10/11
patches deals with this separation and its fallout. Fortunately patch
11/11 after all that preparation work is quiet simple and straight
forward when adding the V3U support.

There is a large patch (10/11) in the series, reviewers please fear not
it only moves blocks of code around verbatim.

While working on this series it have become even more apparent to me
that the VIN group concept probably should be replaced with something
like the Media Device Allocator API once it learns how to work with DT.
This series separation of the two VIN concepts is a good first step for
me to hope to find time to dig into that.
