Correctness of format type (try or active) and pad number parameters passed to subdevice operation callbacks is now verified only for IOCTL calls. However, those callbacks are also used by drivers, e.g., V4L2 host interfaces. Since both subdev_do_ioctl() and drivers are using v4l2_subdev_call() macro while calling subdevice operations, move those parameter checks from subdev_do_ioctl() to v4l2_subdev_call() so we can avoid taking care of those checks inside drivers. Define a wrapper function for each operation callback in scope, then gather those wrappers in a static v4l2_subdev_ops structure so the v4l2_subdev_call() macro can find them easy if provided.

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.
