This used to be the default if the lock pointer was set, but now that lock is by
default only used for ioctl serialization. Those drivers that already used
core locking have this flag set explicitly, except for some drivers where
it was obvious that there was no need to serialize any file operations other
than ioctl.
The drivers that didn't need this flag were:
drivers/media/radio/dsbr100.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-isa.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-keene.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-miropcm20.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-mr800.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-tea5764.c
drivers/media/radio/radio-timb.c
drivers/media/video/vivi.c
sound/i2c/other/tea575x-tuner.c
The other drivers that use core locking and where it was not immediately
obvious that this flag wasn't needed were changed so that the flag is set
together with a comment that that driver needs work to avoid having to
set that flag. This will often involve taking the core lock in the fops
themselves.
Eventually this flag should go and it should not be used in new drivers.
There are a few reasons why we want to avoid core locking of non-ioctl
fops: in the case of mmap this can lead to a deadlock in rare situations
since when mmap is called the mmap_sem is held and it is possible for
other parts of the code to take that lock as well (copy_from_user()/copy_to_user()
perform a down_read(&mm->mmap_sem) when a page fault occurs).
It is very unlikely that that happens since the core lock serializes all
fops, but the kernel warns about it if lock validation is turned on.
For poll it is also undesirable to take the core lock as that can introduce
increased latency. The same is true for read/write.
While it was possible to make flags or something to turn on/off taking the
core lock for each file operation, in practice it is much simpler to just
not take it at all except for ioctl and leave it to the driver to take the
lock. There are only a handful fops compared to the zillion ioctls we have.
I also wanted to make it obvious which drivers still take the lock for all
fops, so that's why I chose to have drivers set it explicitly.

first is in the init sequence for a capture and is required for stable

If the firmware has failed, this patch will automatically reload &
restart the card. The previous card state will be restored on a
successful restart. Firmware reload will only happen if neither the
encoder or decoder is active. If the card is busy then behaviour is as
before, returning -EIO on device access until the reload can occur. On
cards that support video output, coloured bars will be displayed during
the reload.

>From Ian's e-mail:
When a device is opened the firmware state will be checked. If it isn't
responding then the open will fail with -EIO. Due to the nature of the
hardware, a single failed check will block everything since we don't know
exactly what has failed. A side effect of this is the blocking of debug
access, so an additional debug level has been created which allows the block
to be bypassed.
Andy Walls' modifications:
I modified Ian's patch to add a separate fw_debug module parameter to change
the driver's behavior, as opposed to using the normal debug module parameter.
The fw_debug module parameter is only available when CONFIG_VIDEO_ADV_DEBUG
is set.
I also made some minor whitespace adjustments and changed some warning

This change attempts to fix the ivtv tinny audio problem by keeping digitizer
to encoder audio clocks running, while disabling the video clocks as needed to
avoid unpredictable PCI bus hangs.
To accomplish this, for the cx25840 module enabling of audio streaming had
to be separated from enabling video streaming, requiring an additional
v4l2_subdev_audio_op and calls to this new op in the pvrusb2 and ivtv drivers.
The cx231xx and cx23885 driver use the cx25840 module for affecting only
video on s_stream calls, so those drivers needed no change.
The CX23418 hardware does not exhibit either the tinny audio problem nor the PCI
bus hang, so the cx18 driver did not need corresponding changes.
CX2341[56] based cards that are not using the CX2584x family of chips
do not seem to be affected by the tinny audio problem, and this change should
not affect how they are configured. It will delay their first capture by
starting by another 300 msec though.
Many thanks go to Argus <pthorn-ivtvd@styx2002.no-ip.org> and

The v4l core creates four different video devices (video, vbi, radio, vtx)
and each has its own range of minor numbers. However, modern devices keep
increasing the number of devices that they need so a maximum of 64 video
devices will not be enough in the future. In addition this scheme makes
it very hard to add new device types.
This patch disconnects the kernel number allocation (e.g. video0, video1,
etc.) from the actual minor number (just pick the first free minor).
This allows for much more flexibility in the future. However, it does
require the use of udev. For those who cannot use udev a new CONFIG option
was created that changes the allocation scheme back to the old behavior.
Thanks to Greg KH for suggesting this approach during the 2008 LPC.
In addition, several bugs were fixed in the ivtv and cx18 drivers: these
drivers try to allocate specific kernel numbers but that scheme contained
a bug which caused what should have been e.g. video17 to appear as e.g.
video2.

Previously, all yuv data written to /dev/video48 had only basic support with
no double buffering to avoid display tearing.
With this patch, yuv frames written to video48 are now handled by the existing
IVTV_IOC_DMA_FRAME framework. As such, the frames are hardware buffered to
avoid tearing, and honour scaling mode & field order options. Unlike the
proprietary IVTV_IOC_DMA_FRAME ioctl, all parameters are controlled by the
V4L2 API.
Due to mpeg & yuv output restrictions being different, their V4L2 output
controls have been separated. To control the yuv output, the V4L2 calls must
be done via video48.
If the ivtvfb module is loaded, there will be one side effect to this merge.
The yuv output window will be constrained to the visible framebuffer area. In
the event that a virtual framebuffer size is being used, the limit to the
output size will be the virtual dimensions, but only the portion that falls
within the currently visible area of the framebuffer will be shown.
Like the IVTV_IOC_DMA_FRAME ioctl, the supplied frames must be padded to 720
pixels wide. However the height must only be padded up the nearest multiple
of 32. This would mean an image of 102 lines must be padded to 128. As long
as the true source image size is given, the padding will not be visible in
the final output.
