[media] cx25840: better document the media controller TODO
Analog video inputs are the tuner, plus composite, svideo, etc, e. g. the input pat should actually be like: ___________ TUNER --------> | | | | SVIDEO .......> | cx25840 | | | COMPOSITE1 ...> |_________| (in the above, dashes represent the enabled link, and periods represent the disabled ones) In other words, if we want to properly represent the pipeline, it should be possible to see via the media controller if the tuner is being used as an image source, or if the source is something else. I didn't map those other inputs here yet, due to a few things: - The extra inputs would require subdevs that won't be controlled - I was in doubt about the best way for doing that - That would likely require some extra setup for cx25840 caller drivers, in order to represent what of the possible internal inputs are actually used on each specific board Actually, at least for now, I was unable to see much benefit on adding such map now, so let's just document it, as this could be added later on, as needed.
