The subdev .[gs]_frame_interval are video operations, but they operate on pads (and even on streams). Not only is this confusing, it causes practical issues for drivers as the operations don't receive a subdev state pointer, requiring manual state handling. To improve the situation, turn the operations into pad operations, and extend them to receive a state pointer like other pad operations. While at it, rename the operations to .[gs]et_frame_interval at the same time to match the naming scheme of other pad operations. This isn't strictly necessary, but given that all drivers using those operations need to be modified, handling the rename separately would generate more churn for very little gain (if at all).

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.
