Media Device Allocator API to allows multiple drivers share a media device.
This API solves a very common use-case for media devices where one physical
device (an USB stick) provides both audio and video. When such media device
exposes a standard USB Audio class, a proprietary Video class, two or more
independent drivers will share a single physical USB bridge. In such cases,
it is necessary to coordinate access to the shared resource.
Using this API, drivers can allocate a media device with the shared struct
device as the key. Once the media device is allocated by a driver, other
drivers can get a reference to it. The media device is released when all
the references are released.

The media_entity_pipeline_start() and media_entity_pipeline_stop()
functions are renamed as media_pipeline_start() and media_pipeline_stop(),
respectively. The reason is two-fold: the pipeline struct is, rightly,
already called media_pipeline (rather than media_entity_pipeline) and what
this really is about is a pipeline. A pipeline consists of entities ---
and, well, other objects embedded in these entities.
As the pipeline object will be in the future moved from entities to pads
in order to support multiple pipelines through a single entity, do the
renaming now.
Similarly, functions operating on struct media_entity_graph as well as the
struct itself are renamed by dropping the "entity_" part from the prefix
of the function family and the data structure. The graph traversal which
is what the functions are about is not specifically about entities only
and will operate on pads for the same reason as the media pipeline.
The patch has been generated using the following command:
git grep -l media_entity |xargs perl -i -pe '
s/media_entity_pipeline/media_pipeline/g;
s/media_entity_graph/media_graph/g'
And a few manual edits related to line start alignment and line wrapping.

Instead of using c:type:`struct foo <foo>`, use:
struct c:type:`foo`
This patch was generated via this shell script:
for i in `find Documentation/media -type f`; do perl -ne 'if (m/\:c\:type\:\`struct\s+(\S+)\s*\<(\S+)\>\`/) { $s=$1; $r=$2; if ($s eq $r) { s/\:c\:type\:\`struct\s+(\S+)\s*\<(\S+)\>\`/struct :c:type:`$2`/; s/struct\s+struct/struct/; s/(struct\s+\:c\:type\:\`\S+\`)\s+structure/$1/; }} print $_' <$i >a && mv a $i; done

The cross-reference to "struct media_pad" was pointing to
a place that doesn't exist. Fix it, and adjust the second
reference on the same paragraph to use the same text.

References at the rst files for C functions generated via

The uAPI book has 5 parts, but they lost numeration after
conversion to rst. Manually number those parts, and make
the main index with 1 depth, to only show the parts and
the annexes.
At each part, use :maxwidth: 5, in order to show a more
complete index.
While here, fix the cross-references between different
books.

I ended by adding twice each media header, because I saw some
missing stuff at the documents. It seems it was my mistake,
as everything seems to be there.
So, remove those extra stuff, to avoid duplicating the
documentation of the functions.

There were lots of issues at the media controller side,
after the conversion:
- Some documentation at the header files weren't using the
kernel-doc start block;
- Now, the C files with the exported symbols also need to be
added. So, all headers need to be included twice: one to
get the structs/enums/.. and another one for the functions;
- Notes should use the ReST tag, as kernel-doc doesn't
recognizes it anymore;
- Identation needs to be fixed, as ReST uses it to identify
when a format "tag" ends.
- Fix the cross-references at the media controller description.

Just like the uAPI book is split into parts, let's split the
kAPI documentation. That should make easier to maintain, and
will split the final documentation into smaller html files.
