[PATCH v2 3/3] media: vimc: Join pipeline if one already exists

From: Kaaira Gupta
Date: Fri Jul 24 2020 - 08:02:45 EST


An output which is running is already part of a pipeline and trying to
start a new pipeline is not possible. This prevents two capture devices
from streaming at the same time.

Instead of failing to start the second capture device allow it to join
the already running pipeline. This allows two (or more) capture devices
to independently be started and stopped.

[Kaaira: Changed the search for an existing connected sensor, to search
for a non-NULL pipe instead, this helps to terminate the search at
output itself instead of going till the sensor, changed variable names,
commit message and conditions accordingly]
