If a subdevice is unregistered and then registered again without the driver being removed and re-probed (which will happen when the media device is removed and re-probed without also removing/re-probing the subdevice), media_device_register_entity() is called with a non-zero entity->num_pads, and then the subdevice's .registered callback calls media_entity_pads_init(). Thus the subdevice's pad objects are added to the media device pad list twice, causing list corruption. One way to fix this would be to create media_entity_pads_destroy(), and call it in the subdevice's .unregistered callback. But calling media_entity_pads_init() in the .registered callbacks was done for legacy reasons and is no longer necessary, so move the call to media_entity_pads_init() into the subdevice's probe functions. This fixes the duplicate pad obejcts in the media device pad list.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
