Add a second release function: video_device_release_empty
It can be used by drivers that have statically allocated
video_device structs.
Its use usually, but not always, indicates laziness on the
part of the driver programmer.

Better check the video_device pointer before using it.

The BKL is now moved from the video_open function in v4l2-dev.c to the
various drivers. It seems about a third of the drivers already has a
lock of some sort protecting the open(), another third uses
video_exclusive_open (yuck!) and the last third required adding the
BKL in their open function.

If a wrong device type is used with video_register_device_index() it should
better return an error number, instead of a constant.

Change function name in kernel-doc and add kernel-doc for parameter @index:
Warning(linhead//drivers/media/video/videodev.c:2090): No description found for parameter 'index'
Also change source file name in DocBook/videobook.tmpl to match the new
source file name.

The type and type2 fields were unused and so could be removed.
Instead add a vfl_type field that contains the type of the video
device.

The class_dev field is a normal device, not a class device. This is very
confusing and now that the old 'dev' field has been renamed to 'parent'
we can rename 'class_dev' to just 'dev'.

The field 'dev' is not the video device, but the parent of the video device.
Rename accordingly.

videodev.c became top-heavy so all the ioctl processing has been split off
into v4l2-ioctl.c. This means videodev.c is back to its original purpose:
creating and registering v4l devices.
Since videodev.c and v4l2-ioctl.c should still remain one module (as least
for now) I also had to rename videodev.c to v4l2-dev.c to prevent a
circular dependency when building a videodev.ko module. This is not a bad
thing, since the source and header now have the same name. And the v4l2-
prefix is useful to see which sources are generic v4l2 support code.
