Use one of the struct v4l2_create_buffers reserved bytes to report
the maximum possible number of buffers for the queue.
V4l2 framework set V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_MAX_NUM_BUFFERS flags in queue
capabilities so userland can know when the field is valid.
Does the same change in v4l2_create_buffers32 structure.

This patch lets user-space request a non-coherent memory
allocation during CREATE_BUFS and REQBUFS ioctl calls.
= CREATE_BUFS
struct v4l2_create_buffers has seven 4-byte reserved areas,
so reserved[0] is renamed to ->flags. The struct, thus, now
has six reserved 4-byte regions.

struct v4l2_create_buffers32 has seven 4-byte reserved areas,

= REQBUFS
We use one byte of a 4 byte ->reserved[1] member of struct
v4l2_requestbuffers. The struct, thus, now has reserved 3 bytes.

There are lots of tables that are not properly displayed
in LaTeX/PDF.
Fix the tablecolumns, add longtable where needed and LaTeX
formatting macros, in order to address such issues.

Sphinx 3.x broke support for the cdomain.py extension, as the
c domain code was rewritten. Due to that, the c tags need to
be re-written, in order to use the new c domain notation.

The patch partially reverts some of the UAPI bits of the buffer
cache management hints. Namely, the queue consistency (memory
coherency) user-space hint because, as it turned out, the kernel
implementation of this feature was misusing DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT.
The patch reverts both kernel and user space parts: removes the
DMA consistency attr functions, rolls back changes to v4l2_requestbuffers,
v4l2_create_buffers structures and corresponding UAPI functions
(plus compat32 layer) and cleans up the documentation.

We use one bit of a ->reserved[1] member of struct v4l2_requestbuffers,
which is now renamed to ->flags. Unlike v4l2_create_buffers, struct
v4l2_requestbuffers does not have enough reserved room. Therefore for
backward compatibility ->reserved and ->flags were put into anonymous
union.

Since 2017, there is an space reserved for userspace API,
created by changeset 1d596dee38 ("docs: Create a user-space API guide").
As the media subsystem was one of the first subsystems to use
Sphinx, until this patch, we were keeping things on a separate
place.
Let's just use the new location, as having all uAPI altogether
will likely make things easier for developers.
