The last set of drivers still using the parent field of video_device instead of the v4l2_dev field have been converted, so v4l2_dev is now always set. A proper pointer to v4l2_dev is necessary these days otherwise the advanced debugging ioctls will not work when addressing sub-devices. It also ensures that the core can always go from a video_device struct to the top-level v4l2_device struct. There is still one single use case for the parent pointer: if there are multiple busses, each being the parent of one or more video nodes, and if they all share the same v4l2_device struct. In that case one still needs a parent pointer since the v4l2_device struct can only refer to a single parent device. The cx88 driver is one such case. Unfortunately, the cx88 failed to set the parent pointer since 3.6. The next patch will correct this. In order to support this use-case the parent pointer is only renamed to dev_parent, not removed altogether. It has been renamed to ensure that the compiler will catch any (possibly out-of-tree) drivers that were missed during the conversion.
