To describe in the kernel the connection between devices and their supporting peripherals (for example, a camera sensor and the vcm driving the focusing lens for it), add a new type of media link to introduce the concept of these ancillary links. Add some elements to the uAPI documentation to explain the new link type, their purpose and some aspects of their current implementation.

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.
