As MEDIA_IOC_G_TOPOLOGY shares the data types already declared
for entities, pads and links, we should move those to a separate
part of the document, and use cross-references where needed.
So, move the following tables to a separate section at the
DocBook:
media-entity-type
media-entity-flag
media-pad-flag
media-link-flag

Both revision and group_id fields were never used and were always
initialized to zero. Remove them.

Due to the rename, the documentation became outdated.
Update it to reflect what's there at media.h.

Cleanup the media controller entities description:
- remove MEDIA_ENT_T_DEVNODE and MEDIA_ENT_T_V4L2_SUBDEV entity
types, as they don't mean anything;
- add MEDIA_ENT_T_UNKNOWN with a proper description;
- remove ALSA and FB entity types. Those should not be used, as
the types are deprecated. We'll soon be adidng ALSA, but with
a different entity namespace;
- improve the description of some entities.

Now that interfaces and entities are distinct, it makes no sense
of keeping something named as MEDIA_ENT_T_DEVNODE_DVB_foo.
Made via this script:
for i in $(git grep -l MEDIA_ENT_T|grep -v uapi/linux/media.h); do sed s,MEDIA_ENT_T_DEVNODE_DVB_,MEDIA_ENT_T_DVB_, <$i >a && mv a $i; done
for i in $(git grep -l MEDIA_ENT_T|grep -v uapi/linux/media.h); do sed s,MEDIA_ENT_T_DVB_DVR,MEDIA_ENT_T_DVB_TSOUT, <$i >a && mv a $i; done
for i in $(git grep -l MEDIA_ENT_T|grep -v uapi/linux/media.h); do sed s,MEDIA_ENT_T_DVB_FE,MEDIA_ENT_T_DVB_DEMOD, <$i >a && mv a $i; done
for i in $(git grep -l MEDIA_ENT_T|grep -v uapi/linux/media.h); do sed s,MEDIA_ENT_T_DVB_NET,MEDIA_ENT_T_DVB_DEMOD_NET_DECAP, <$i >a && mv a $i; done

The alsa struct in struct media_entity_desc is now marked as deprecated.
However, the alsa struct should remain as it is since it cannot be replaced
by a simple major/minor device node description. The alsa struct was designed
to be used as an alsa card description so V4L2 drivers could use this to expose
the alsa card that they create to carry the captured audio. Such a card is not
just a PCM device, but also needs to contain the alsa subdevice information,
and it may map to multiple devices, e.g. a PCM and a mixer device, such as the
au0828 usb stick creates.
This is exactly as intended and this cannot and should not be replaced by a
simple major/minor.
However, whether this information is in the right form for an ALSA device such
that it can handle udev renaming rules as well is another matter. So mark this
alsa struct as TODO and document the problems involved.
Updated the documentation as well to reflect this and to add the 'major'
and 'minor' field documentation.
Updated the documentation to clearly state that struct dev is to be used for
(sub-)devices that create a single device node. Other devices need their own
structure here.

The DVB API is actually several different APIs bundled together, each
using its own device node.
Fix the media controller DVB API to actually reflect what's there at the
DVB subsystem.

The media-ctl userspace application assumes that all device nodes
are uniquelly defined via major,minor, just like v4l and fb.
That's ok for those types of devices, but, as we're adding support
for DVB at the API, what's written there at the DocBook is wrong.
So, fix it.
While here, fix the size of the reserved space inside the union,
with is 184, and not 180.

A lot of SOCs including Texas Instruments Davinci family mainly use
video decoders as input devices. This patch adds a flag
'MEDIA_ENT_T_V4L2_SUBDEV_DECODER' media entity type for decoder's.
Along side updates the documentation for this media entity type.

This patch addresses several issues pointed by Randy Dunlap
<rdunlap@xenotime.net> at changeset ece722c:
- In the generated index.html file, "media" is listed first, but it
should be listed in alphabetical order, not first.
- The generated files are (hidden) in .tmpmedia/
- The link from the top-level index.html file to "media" is to
media/index.html, but the file is actually in .tmpmedia/media/index.html
- Please build docs with and without using "O=builddir" and test that.
- Would it be possible for media to have its own Makefile instead of
merging into this one?
Due to the way cleandocs target works, I had to rename the media DocBook
to media_api, otherwise cleandocs would remove the /media directory.
