[PATCH v5 3/3] [media] media-device: set topology version 0 at media registration

[Javier Martinez Canillas]

The G_TOPOLOGY ioctl is used to get a graph topology and since in the
future a graph can be dynamically updated, there is a way to know the
topology version so userspace can be aware that the graph has changed.

The version 0 is reserved to indicate that the graph is static (i.e no
graphs updates since the media device was registered).

So, now that the media device initialization and registration has been
split and the media device node is not exposed to user-space until all
the entities have been registered and links created, it is safe to set
a topology version 0 in media_device_register().
