Bty, please avoid long paragraphs at the patch description,
and please try to be clearer on your patch descriptions... That
makes boring to read everything. :-;

Hmm... now I understood why you did the changes on patch 13/31.

I see what you're doing, but not sure if this is a good idea
to have one bool for each possible device. On au0828, the
topology is actually simpler than on other devices, as it
currently supports a very few set of I2C devices, but on other
drivers, things can be messier.

See, for example, two graphs for em28xx-based devices:
https://mchehab.fedorapeople.org/mc-next-gen/wintv_usb2.png
https://mchehab.fedorapeople.org/mc-next-gen/hvr_950.png

On the first graph, the tuner is not connected directly to the
analog demod, but, instead, to two other elements:
- tda9887 - for video
- msp3400 - for audio

IMHO, the best way to handle graph setup is that each driver
should handle the links that belong only to them synchronously,
after creating/registering all the entities.

So, only the links between two drivers would be asynchronously
created. So, In the case of au0828:

- au0828 core will create the connector entities;

- I2C drivers will create their own entities;

- DVB core will create the DVB entities/interfaces;

- V4L core will create V4L interfaces and I/O entities;

- au0828 V4L driver will create all V4L links, after
ensuring that the needed I2C drivers were bound;

- snd-usb-audio will create all ALSA-specific entities links;

The V4L->ALSA links will either be created by au0828-core,
via the notification handler.

With that in mind, I don't see any need to touch at
au0828_create_media_graph(). It will need an extra function
to handle the notification when ALSA gets registered
(or when the entities there are added, whatever works best).

Mauro
