Hans Verkuil 879aa24d63 [media] V4L: improve the BKL replacement heuristic
The BKL replacement mutex had some serious performance side-effects on
V4L drivers. It is replaced by a better heuristic that works around the
worst of the side-effects.

Read the v4l2-dev.c comments for the whole sorry story. This is a
temporary measure only until we can convert all v4l drivers to use
unlocked_ioctl.

Guennadi Liakhovetski 6c2d4dd139 V4L/DVB: V4L2: avoid name conflicts in macros
"sd" and "err" are too common names to be used in macros for local variables.
Prefix them with an underscore to avoid name clashing.

Hans Verkuil 0996517cf8 V4L/DVB: v4l2: Add new control handling framework
Add a new framework to handle controls which makes life for driver
developers much easier.

Note that this patch moves some of the control support that used to be in
v4l2-common.c to v4l2-ctrls.c. The tables were copied unchanged. The body
of v4l2_ctrl_query_fill() was copied to a new v4l2_ctrl_fill() function
in v4l2-ctrls.c. This new function doesn't use the v4l2_queryctrl
struct anymore, which makes it more general.

The remainder of v4l2-ctrls.c is all new. Highlights include:

- No need to implement VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL, QUERYMENU, S_CTRL, G_CTRL,
  S_EXT_CTRLS, G_EXT_CTRLS or TRY_EXT_CTRLS in either bridge drivers
  or subdevs. New wrapper functions are provided that can just be plugged in.
  Once everything has been converted these wrapper functions can be removed as well.

- When subdevices are added their controls can be automatically merged
  with the bridge driver's controls.

- Most drivers just need to implement s_ctrl to set the controls.
  The framework handles the locking and tries to be as 'atomic' as possible.

- Ready for the subdev device nodes: the same mechanism applies to subdevs
  and their device nodes as well. Sub-device drivers can make controls
  local, preventing them from being merged with bridge drivers.

- Takes care of backwards compatibility handling of VIDIOC_S_CTRL and
  VIDIOC_G_CTRL. Handling of V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE is fully transparent.
  CTRL_CLASS controls are automatically added.

Call v4l2_device_disconnect when the parent of a hotpluggable device
disconnects. This ensures that you do not have a pointer to a device that

Hans Verkuil 3a63e4492f V4L/DVB (10643): v4l2-device: allow a NULL parent device when registering.
Some drivers (e.g. for ISA devices) have no parent device because there
is no associated bus driver. Allow the parent device to be NULL in
those cases when registering v4l2_device.

Hans Verkuil 069b747931 V4L/DVB (10138): v4l2-ioctl: change to long return type to match unlocked_ioctl.
Since internal to v4l2 the ioctl prototype is the same regardless of it
being called through .ioctl or .unlocked_ioctl, we need to convert it all
to the long return type of unlocked_ioctl.

Thanks to Jean-Francois Moine for posting an initial patch for this and
thus bringing it to our attention.
