The list of unbound V4L2 sub-devices shall be maintained for the purpose of listing those sub-devices only, not for their bindin status. Also, the V4L2 async connections now have, instead of two list entries, a single list entry in the notifier's list, be that either waiting or done lists, while the notifier's asc_list is removed. The one-to-one relation between a sub-device and a connection is still maintained in this patch.
