From: Sakari Ailus <[email protected]> Internal sink pads will be used as routing endpoints in V4L2 [GS]_ROUTING IOCTLs, to indicate that the stream begins in the entity. Internal sink pads are pads that have both SINK and INTERNAL flags set. Also prevent creating links to pads that have been flagged as internal and initialising SOURCE pads with INTERNAL flag set.
