V4L/DVB (7091): radio-si470x improvements and seldom problem fixed in tuning functions
I updated the radio-si470x driver another time. Here are the commented history entries:
- number of seek_retries changed to tune_timeout
The last versions checked for the end of frequency tuning by polling a si470x register.
Therefore polling depended on the usb utilization.
This was changed to have a constant timeout now.
- fixed problem with incomplete tune operations by own buffers
The last version used a shared buffer to assembly the USB HID reports.
It sometimes happened, that multiple functions were modifing this buffer simultanuously.
When sending such reports, the hardware returned USB stalls (-EPIPE).
Now buffers of the correct size (smaller than before) are allocated as local variables.
- optimization of variables
The size of some variables has been reduced to allow the compiler to generate more optimized code.
- improved error logging
At some important location, error checking was improved.
Especially the usb transfers to access si470x registers and the tuning functions were modified.

V4L/DVB (7084): saa7134: add support for the Medion / Creatix CTX948 card
This adds support for analog inputs and DVB-T.
Good sensitivity for DVB-T currently needs to use analog TV first.
DVB-S support is not yet completed, but is on the way.
As pointed by Adrian Bunk, with I2C=m and VIDEO_DEV=y, videodev brokes.
This patch moves the functions that videodev needs from v4l2-common. It also
fixes some Kconfig changes.
After this patch, I2C=m / VIDEO_DEV=y will make v4l2 core statically linked
into kernel. v4l2-common will be m, and all V4L drivers will also be m.
This approach is very conservative, since it is possible to have V4L drivers
that don't need I2C or v4l2-common. The better is to map what drivers really
need v4l2-common, making them to select v4l2-common, and allowing the others to
be 'y', 'm' and 'n'.

Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.
Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
<dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

Remove path_release_on_umount()
path_release_on_umount() should only be called from sys_umount(). I merged the
function into sys_umount() instead of having in in namei.c.

Dont touch fs_struct in drivers
The sound drivers and the pnpbios core test for current->root != NULL. This
test seems to be unnecessary since we always have rootfs mounted before
initializing the drivers.

FLAT binaries: drop BINFMT_FLAT bad header magic warning
The warning issued by fs/binfmt_flat.c when the format handler is given a
non-FLAT and non-script executable is annoying to say the least when working
with FDPIC ELF objects. If you build a kernel that supports both FLAT and
FDPIC ELFs on no-mmu, every time you execute an FDPIC ELF, the kernel spits
out this message. While I understand a lot of newcomers to the no-mmu world
screw up generation of FLAT binaries, this warning is not usable for systems
that support more than just FLAT.
