The pwc driver claims to support any resolution between 160x120
and 640x480, but emulates this by simply drawing a black border
around the image. Userspace can draw its own black border if it
really wants one.

This stems from the v4l1 era, with v4l2 everything can be done with
standardized v4l2 API calls.

The in kernel version of the pwc driver has never supported snapshot
mode, and now that we no longer support the pixfmt.priv abuse there also
no longer is a way for userspace to request it, rendering all the code in
question dead (never called), so remove it.

While testing gtk-v4l's new ctrl event code, I hit the following deadlock
in the pwc driver:
Thread 1:
-Does a VIDIOC_G_CTRL
-video2_ioctl takes the modlock
-video2_ioctl calls v4l2_g_ctrl
-v4l2_g_ctrl takes the ctrl_handler lock
-v4l2_g_ctrl calls pwc_g_volatile_ctrl
-pwc_g_volatile_ctrl releases the modlock as the usb transfer can take a
significant amount of time and we don't want to block DQBUF / QBUF too long
Thread 2:
-Does a VIDIOC_FOO_CTRL
-video2_ioctl takes the modlock
-video2_ioctl calls v4l2_foo_ctrl
-v4l2_foo_ctrl blocks while trying to take the ctrl_handler lock
Thread 1:
-Blocks while trying to re-take the modlock, as its caller will eventually
unlock that
Now we have thread 1 waiting for the modlock while holding the ctrl_handler
lock and thread 2 waiting for the ctrl_handler lock while holding the
modlock -> deadlock.
Conclusion:
1) We cannot unlock modlock from pwc_s_ctrl / pwc_g_volatile_ctrl,
but this can cause QBUF / DQBUF to block for up to a full second
2) After evaluating various option I came to the conclusion that pwc should
stop using the v4l2 core locking, and instead do its own locking
Thus this patch stops pwc using the v4l2 core locking, and replaces that with
it doing its own locking where necessary.

Doing a bunch of initialization every time /dev/video is opened, and thus
for example when the udev rules probe for capabilities makes no sense,
do it at driver load, resp. stream start instead.
This is a preparation patch for allowing multiple opens of the /dev/video
node.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
