8c89ddd536 [media] media: Fix media device minor registration
The find_next_zero_bit() is called with the from and to arguments in the
wrong order. This results in the function always returning 0, and all
media devices being registered with minor 0. Furthermore, mdev->minor is
then used before being assigned with the find_next_zero_bit() return
value. This really makes sure we'll always use minor 0.

Fix this and let the system support more than one media device.

cf4b9211b5 [media] media: Media device node support
The media_devnode structure provides support for registering and
unregistering character devices using a dynamic major number. Reference
counting is handled internally, making device drivers easier to write
without having to solve the open/disconnect race condition issue over
and over again.

The code is based on video/v4l2-dev.c.
