Drivers must not perform unbalanced calls to stop the entity pipeline,
however if they do they will fault in the core media code, as the
entity->pipe will be set as NULL. We handle this gracefully in the core
with a WARN for the developer.

Replace the erroneous check on zero streaming counts, with a check on
NULL pipe elements instead, as this is the symptom of unbalanced
media_pipeline_stop calls.

This looks good to me,

Acked-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com>

I'll let Sakari review and merge the patch.

Ahh, yes - I forgot to mention, although perhaps it will be obvious for
Sakari - but this patch is based on top of Sakari's pending media
pipeline and graph walk cleanup series :D

I've applied this on top of the other patches.

It's always good to mention dependencies to other patches, that's very
relevant for reviewers.

I've just been going through my old branches doing some clean up - and I can't
see that this patch [0] made it to integration anywhere.

Did it get lost?
 It looks like the cleanup series it was based on made it through...

Mauro, perhaps you could pick this one up now ?

Regards

Kieran

What I think happened was that I had applied it to the correct branch BUT I
already had sent a pull request on it. My apologies.
