I attended most of the points you pointed. I'll comment just the
ones that I have a different opinion, or require further discussions.

Yeah, they're meant to be used only internally, but there are lot
of tricks on those macros. So, I prefer to keep them documented.

This "group" is really device-specific: each device may define its own
private set of device groups. I guess only one or two drivers actually
use it, like this one:

	drivers/media/platform/davinci/vpif_display.c

See calls for v4l2_device_call_until_err() there.

The group ID is filled on this logic, inside vpif_probe():

			if (vpif_obj.sd[i])
				vpif_obj.sd[i]->grp_id = 1 << i;

Maybe it could say, instead:

	"all subdevs matching the &v4l2_subdev.grp_id, as
assigned by the bridge driver."

It isn't an operation class. It is a group of sub-devices, defined by
the bridge driver.

It will complain.

I'm enclosing a new version of this patch with the requested changes.


Thanks,
Mauro

[PATCH v3 05/17] media: v4l2-device.h: document helper macros

There are several macros that aren't documented using kernel-docs
markups.

Document them.

While here, add cross-references to structs on this file.
