[PATCH 2/2] media: staging: imx: configure src_mux in csi_start

After media_pipeline_start() was called, the media graph is assumed to
be validated. It won't be validated again if a second stream starts.
The imx-media-csi driver, however, changes hardware configuration in the
link_validate() callback. This can result in started streams with
misconfigured hardware.
In the concrete example, the ipu2_csi1_mux is driven by a parallel video
input. After the media pipeline has been started with this
configuration, a second stream is configured to use ipu1_csi0 with
MIPI-CSI input from imx6-mipi-csi2. This may require the reconfiguration
of ipu1_csi0 with ipu_set_csi_src_mux(). Since the media pipeline is
already running, link_validate won't be called, and the ipu1_csi0 won't
be reconfigured. The resulting video is broken, because the
ipu1_csi0_mux is misconfigured, but no error is reported.
Move ipu_set_csi_src_mux from csi_link_validate to csi_start to ensure
that input to ipu1_csi0 is configured correctly when starting the
stream. This is a local reconfiguration in ipu1_csi0 and is possible
while the media pipeline is running.
