There are a few discussions left with regards to this ioctl:
1) the name of the new structs will contain _v2_ on it?
2) what's the best alternative to avoid compat32 issues?
Due to that, let's postpone the addition of this new ioctl to
the next Kernel version, to give people more time to discuss it.

While we need to keep a u64 alignment to avoid compat32 issues,
having the number of entities/pads/links/interfaces represented
by an u64 is incoherent with the ID number, with is an u32.
In order to make it coherent, change those quantities to u32.

The V4L2 core won't be adding connectors to the tuners and other
entities that need them. Let it be clear.

By using u64 integers and pointers, we can get rid of compat32
logic. So, let's do it!

Now that entities have a main function, expose it via
MEDIA_IOC_G_TOPOLOGY ioctl.
Please notice that some entities may have secundary functions.
Such use case will be addressed later, when we add support for the
Media Controller properties.

As we'll be removing entity subtypes from the Kernel, we need
to provide a way for drivers and core to check if a given
entity is represented by a V4L2 subdev or if it is an V4L2
I/O entity (typically with DMA).
Drivers that create entities that don't belong to any defined subdev
category should use MEDIA_ENT_T_V4L2_SUBDEV_UNKNOWN.

The alsa struct in struct media_entity_desc is now marked as deprecated.
However, the alsa struct should remain as it is since it cannot be replaced
by a simple major/minor device node description. The alsa struct was designed
to be used as an alsa card description so V4L2 drivers could use this to expose
the alsa card that they create to carry the captured audio. Such a card is not
just a PCM device, but also needs to contain the alsa subdevice information,
and it may map to multiple devices, e.g. a PCM and a mixer device, such as the
au0828 usb stick creates.
This is exactly as intended and this cannot and should not be replaced by a
simple major/minor.
However, whether this information is in the right form for an ALSA device such
that it can handle udev renaming rules as well is another matter. So mark this
alsa struct as TODO and document the problems involved.
Updated the documentation as well to reflect this and to add the 'major'
and 'minor' field documentation.
Updated the documentation to clearly state that struct dev is to be used for
(sub-)devices that create a single device node. Other devices need their own
structure here.

Most of the DVB subdevs have already their own devnode.
Add support for them at the media controller API.
Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@osg.samsung.com>
The previous provision for DVB media controller support were to
define an ID (likely meaning the adapter number) for the DVB
devnodes.
This is just plain wrong. Just like V4L, DVB devices (and any other
device node)) are uniquely identified via a (major, minor) tuple.
This is enough to uniquely identify a devnode, no matter what
API it implements.
So, before we go too far, let's mark the old v4l, fb, dvb and alsa
"devnode" info as deprecated, and just call it as "dev".
We can latter add fields specific to each API if needed.
As we don't want to break compilation on already existing apps,
let's just keep the old definitions as-is, adding a note that
those are deprecated at media-entity.h.
