Darron Broad 59b1842da1 V4L/DVB (9227): MFE: Add multi-frontend mutual exclusion
This add frontend R/W mutual exclusion.
Prior to this point in time it was possible to open both
frontends simultaneously which an MFE card cannot support.

In order to stop this, a delayed open is performed which
has the following function:

-  Return EBUSY after a configurable amount of time
   if a frontend is unavailable due to the other being
   in use.

-  Only allow opening of a frontend if the kernel thread
   of the other has stopped.

This solution was chosen to allow switching between
frontends to work as seamlessly as possible. When both
frontends are actually opened simultaneously then one
will only open, but if quick switching is performed
between one of many then the new open will succeed in
a clean fashion rather than interrupting a kernel
thread.

Darron Broad 8e739090d6 V4L/DVB (9225): MFE: Add configurable gate control
This adds a configurable (one per card) gate control option
for multi-frontend. Prior to this point gate control was
assumed to be on the primary frontend, this is a fault
when the gate to the analogue section is on the secondary
which is the default for both the HVR-3000 and HVR-4000
in MFE.

Steven Toth 363c35fc44 V4L/DVB (9222): S2API: Add Multiple-frontend on a single adapter support.
A detailed description from the original patches 2 years ago:

"The WinTV-HVR3000 has a single transport bus which is shared between
a DVB-T and DVB-S modulator. These patches build on the bus acquisition
cx88 work from a few weeks ago to add support for this.

So to applications the HVR3000 looks like this:
/dev/dvb/adapter0/fe0 (cx24123 DVB-S demod)
/dev/dvb/adapter0/fe1 (cx22702 DVB-T demod)

Additional boards continue as before, eg:
/dev/dvb/adapter1/fe0 (lgdt3302 ATSC demod)

The basic change is removing the single instance of the videobuf_dvb in
cx8802_dev and saa7134_dev(?) and replacing it with a list and some
supporting functions.

*NOTE* This branch was taken before v4l-dvb was closed for 2.6.19 so
two or three current cx88 patches appear to be reversed by this tree,
this will be cleaned up in the near future. The patches missing change
the mutex handing to core->lock, fix an enumeration problem."

It should be recognised that a number of people have been maintaining
this patchset. Significant levels of Kudos to everyone one involved,
including but not limited to:

Darron Broad
Fabio M. Di Nitto
Carlo Scarfoglio
Hans Werner

Without the work of these people, and countless others, my two year old
patches would of died on the Mercurial linuxtv.org vine a long time
ago.

TODO: Revise these patches a little further so that the need for
demux1 and dvr0 is optional, not mandatory on the HVR3000.

HISTORY (darron):
This is the last update to MFE prepared by Hans which is based
upon the `scratchpad' diff created by Carlo.
All MFE work prior to that point must be attributed to Fabio
who ported and maintained Steve's original patch up to that
time.

Janne Grunau 78e92006f4 V4L/DVB (7538): Adds selectable adapter numbers as per module option
The adapter_nr module options can be used to allocate static adapter
numbers on a driver level. It avoids problems with changing DVB apapter
numbers after warm/cold boot or device unplugging and repluging.

Each driver holds DVB_MAX_ADAPTER long array of the preferred order of
adapter numbers.

options dvb-usb-dib0700 adapter_nr=7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0 would result in a
reversed allocation of adapter numbers.

With adapter_nr=2,5 it tries first to get adapter number 2 and 5. If
both are already in use it will allocate the lowest free adapter number.
