Actually, the problem here is that this parses an input routing value to
pass to s_routing, and an input name string. There would need to be
another subdev callback, maybe enum_imput, that would return this
information for the bridge driver, if this info were to be parsed and
maintained by the sensor.

But this info should really be known and parsed by the bridge anyway,
because as the header for s_routing states,

"An i2c device shouldn't know about whether an input pin is connected
to a Composite connector, because on another board or platform it
might be connected to something else entirely. The calling driver is
responsible for mapping a user-level input to the right pins on the i2c
device."
