The API reference documents that the KEEP_CONFIG flag tells the
configuration should not be propatgated by the driver whereas the interface
documentation (dev-subdev.xml) categorically prohibited any changes to the
rest of the pipeline. The latter makes no sense, since it would severely
limit the usefulness of the KEEP_CONFIG flag.

Correct the documentation in dev-subddev.xml.
