Add a helper macro for the situations where a non-MC driver needs to call a state-operation (operation which takes a subdev state as a parameter) in try-context in another subdev. The macro allocates a new subdev state for the called subdev and frees the state afterwards. An example use case is a media platform driver testing if a v4l2_subdev_format would be accepted by a source subdev. This should not be used in MC drivers.

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.
