Media Device Allocator API to allows multiple drivers share a media device. This API solves a very common use-case for media devices where one physical device (an USB stick) provides both audio and video. When such media device exposes a standard USB Audio class, a proprietary Video class, two or more independent drivers will share a single physical USB bridge. In such cases, it is necessary to coordinate access to the shared resource.
Using this API, drivers can allocate a media device with the shared struct device as the key. Once the media device is allocated by a driver, other drivers can get a reference to it. The media device is released when all the references are released.
Change the ALSA driver to use the Media Controller API to share media resources with DVB, and V4L2 drivers on a AU0828 media device.
The Media Controller specific initialization is done after sound card is registered. ALSA creates Media interface and entity function graph nodes for Control, Mixer, PCM Playback, and PCM Capture devices.
snd_usb_hw_params() will call Media Controller enable source handler interface to request the media resource. If resource request is granted, it will release it from snd_usb_hw_free(). If resource is busy, -EBUSY is returned.
Media specific cleanup is done in usb_audio_disconnect().

It looks like you missed my comment for v8:
"You should first configure the media device before registering it."
In other words, first create the media entities, and only then do you register the media device. Otherwise it will come up without any alsa entities, which are then added. So an application that immediately opens the media device upon creation will see a topology that is still in flux.
Yes. You are right. I saw your comment and thought I got it addressed. I will fix it. I have the logic correct in au0828, but not here.
One thing to mention here is some ALSA entities get created dynamically during PCM open when stream is initialized. This happens after media device is registered. These get deleted when pcm close happens. There is no way to avoid creating entities after media device register.
That's OK. We're missing some infrastructure (media events) to inform the application about topology changes.
But when registering the media device for the first time it is good practice to do that after creating all the entities that you can.
Great. We have the same understanding. I think at least one mixer controller entries can be created prior to registering the media device. I am working on v10 to do that. Sorry I misread init sequence in this patch the flow the first time around for v9.
