[libcamera-devel] [RFC PATCH] libcamera: v4l2_videodevice: Track streaming state

Track the state of streamon/streamoff calls to simplify error paths.

Ensuring that streamOff() can be called on non-streaming streams facilitates simpler
error code paths, where a set of devices can all call streamOff regardless of their
initialisation state.

This is a patch I have while developing the RPi ISP handler.
It means I can do the following for error paths:

	data->isp_.stats_->streamOff();
	data->isp_.capture1_->streamOff();
 	data->isp_.capture0_->streamOff();
 	data->isp_.output_->streamOff();
 	data->unicam_->streamOff();

which essentially means I can just call stop(camera) for cleanup, without
having to track which ones were successfully started or not.

So - Reasonable or not ?

Patch will not apply directly to master, as it's currently based on my dev
branch, hence RFC
