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.

+Media Controller Device Allocator API +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +When the media device belongs to more than one driver, the shared media +device is allocated with the shared struct device as the key for look ups. + +The shared media device should stay in registered state until the last +driver unregisters it. In addition, the media device should be released when +all the references are released. Each driver gets a reference to the media +device during probe, when it allocates the media device. If media device is +already allocated, the allocate API bumps up the refcount and returns the +existing media device. The driver puts the reference back in its disconnect +routine when it calls :c:func:`media_device_delete()`. + +The media device is unregistered and cleaned up from the kref put handler to +ensure that the media device stays in registered state until the last driver +unregisters the media device. + +**Driver Usage** + +Drivers should use the appropriate media-core routines to manage the shared +media device life-time handling the two states: +1. allocate -> register -> delete +2. get reference to already registered device -> delete + +call :c:func:`media_device_delete()` routine to make sure the shared media +device delete is handled correctly. + +**driver probe:** +Call :c:func:`media_device_usb_allocate()` to allocate or get a reference +Call :c:func:`media_device_register()`, if media devnode isn't registered + +**driver disconnect:** +Call :c:func:`media_device_delete()` to free the media_device.
