Look how we defined the term driver:

    Driver
        The part of the Linux Kernel that implements support
        for a hardware component.

If we define sub-device driver as you're proposing, we're basically
saying that:
        sub-device driver == Driver

with is not true.

I guess the proper definition would be, instead:

    V4L2 sub-device driver
        A driver for a media component whose bus(es) connects it
        to the hardware controlled via the V4L2 main driver.
        


Thanks,
