![]() A number of sub-device drivers used a static name for the sub-device, and thus the media entity. As the entity name must be unique within a media device, this makes it impossible to have more than one instance of each device in a media device. This is a rather severe limitation. Instead of fixing these drivers, add a comment to the drivers noting that such static names may not be used in the future. The alternative of fixing the drivers is troublesome as the entity (as well as sub-device) name is part of the uAPI. Changing that is almost certain to break something. As these devices are old but no-one has encountered a problem with the static names, leave it as-is.
