Serialization is now done on the open/close/ioctl level and also when the
read/write/poll start an encoder/decoder stream.

Some streams (PCM, VBI decoding) do not need that much memory, so specify
the allocated memory in kB instead of MB to limit memory usage. E.g. 1 MB
is overkill for the VBI decoding stream, 64 kB is enough.

- Give up frame after three retries.
- When the last capture/decode ends, make sure to delete the dma_timer.

It turns out that the cx23415/6 DMA engine cannot do scatter/gather DMA
reliably. Every so often depending on the phase of the moon and your
hardware configuration the cx2341x DMA engine simply chokes on it and
you have to reboot to get it working again.
This change replaced the scatter/gather DMA by single transfers at a time,
where the driver is now responsible for DMA-ing each buffer.
UDMA is still done using scatter/gather DMA, that will be fixed soon.
Many thanks to Mark Bryars <mark.bryars@etvinteractive.com> for discovering
the link between scatter/gather and the DMA timeouts.

The CX2341X_ENC_INITIALIZE_INPUT firmware call requires careful handling,
otherwise the computer can freeze or the top-third of the screen can start
flickering. This patch ensures that CX2341X_ENC_INITIALIZE_INPUT is called
at the right time and in the right way.
In addition the stop capture handling was improved so that the last pending
DMA transfer is also processed. Otherwise this would be the first data that
arrived when a new capture was started which is not what you want.

While decoding (MPEG or YUV) is active or when VBI output is in use, then
do not clear the VBI output of the saa7127. Only after the last user is
gone can we clear it.
This fixes the case where playback was stopped, another channel was chosen
and playback was restarted, while /dev/vbi16 was used to set the WSS
(widescreen) setting. Without this fix the WSS was reset on every stop
instead of just keeping the last value.

Starting an MPEG and VBI capture simultaneously caused errors in
the VBI setup: this setup was done twice when it should be done
only for the first stream that is opened.
Added a mutex to prevent this from happening.

It took three core maintainers, over four years of work, eight new i2c
modules, eleven new V4L2 ioctls, three new DVB video ioctls, a Sliced
VBI API, a new MPEG encoder API, an enhanced DVB video MPEG decoding
API, major YUV/OSD contributions from Ian and John, web/wiki/svn/trac
support from Axel Thimm, (hardware) support from Hauppauge, support and
assistance from the v4l-dvb people and the many, many users of ivtv to
finally make it possible to merge this driver into the kernel.
Thank you all!
