This requires changing all users of dvb_usercopy to
omit the inode argument.

As pointed by Marcin Slusarz &lt;marcin.slusarz@gmail.com&gt;, the warns happens
because CONFIG_DVB_MAX_ADAPTERS depends on CONFIG_DVB_CORE, and there are
valid configs where DVB_CORE is not selected.

This causes such warnings, for every V4L and common drivers that may or
may not be compiled with DVB support:

drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvbdev.h:36:2: warning: #warning invalid CONFIG_DVB_MAX_ADAPTERS value

We can safely remove the warning.

Support for more than 8 DVB devices is requested regularly so make it
a kconfig variable instead of a header define. Values in the range 4-32
are tested.

* Remove smp_lock.h from files which don't need it (including some headers!)
* Add smp_lock.h to files which do need it
* Make smp_lock.h include conditional in hardirq.h
  It's needed only for one kernel_locked() usage which is under CONFIG_PREEMPT

  This will make hardirq.h inclusion cheaper for every PREEMPT=n config
  (which includes allmodconfig/allyesconfig, BTW)

Implement dynamic minor allocation for DVB, to allow more than four
devices of the same type per adapter, based on drivers/usb/core/file.c.

Add a new config option, DVB_DYNAMIC_MINORS, to make use of this
feature, which defaults to no for backwards compatibility.

<title>V4L/DVB (9227): MFE: Add multi-frontend mutual exclusion</title>

<content type='text'>
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.

<title>V4L/DVB (7538): Adds selectable adapter numbers as per module option</title>

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.
