Shouldn't v4l2_async_notifier_add_fwnode_remote_subdev() check for the 
availability of the remote before adding it to the notifier's asd list, 
as in:

diff --git a/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-async.c 
b/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-async.c
index 8bde33c21ce4..b48ed68c6c6c 100644
--- a/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-async.c
+++ b/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-async.c
@@ -615,7 +615,7 @@ v4l2_async_notifier_add_fwnode_remote_subdev(struct 
v4l2_async_notifier *notif,
         int ret;

         remote = fwnode_graph_get_remote_port_parent(endpoint);
-       if (!remote)
+       if (!remote || !fwnode_device_is_available(remote))
                 return -ENOTCONN;

         asd->match_type = V4L2_ASYNC_MATCH_FWNODE;


Otherwise we are back to the problem that the notifier will never 
complete because the remote's driver is not probed.
