This patch is a no-op for Intel, but I am not convinced it's the right
fix or the definitions are not consistent.
* @link_id: Link id number, can be 0 to N, unique for each Master
* @id: bus system-wide unique id
In the MIPI/DisCo definitions, a controller can have multiple masters.
if you have multiple controllers, each of them should have their own
debugfs directory IMHO. It's totally fine to have multiple bus/masters
with a link_id == 0.
