[PATCH 1/4] media: add change_source handler function pointer
From: Shuah Khan
Date: Thu Mar 10 2016 - 00:08:22 EST
Add change_source handler function pointer to struct media_device. Using
the change_source handler, driver can disable current source and enable
new one in one step when user selects a new input.
