+Before registering the notifier, bridge drivers must do two things:

+begin to form a list of subdevice descriptors that the bridge device
+needs for its operation. Subdevice descriptors are added to the notifier
+using the :c:func:`v4l2_async_notifier_add_subdev` call. This function
+takes two arguments: a pointer to struct :c:type:`v4l2_async_notifier`,
