The driver enforces a "quiet period" on the encoder in certain
situations before attempting to operate it. This seems to help avoid
video encoding errors / corruption. The quiet period was 50msec, but
through experimentation it has been observed to improve further if the
interval is increased to 100msec.

The pvrusb2 driver initially sets the tuner to known broadcast frequencies
in the Chicago area, to ease driver testing for the maintainer.
This patch keeps those default frequencies, but allows them to be altered
via modprobe option. This allows the same ease and convenience for testing
multiple pvrusb2 devices one after another under other conditions and areas.
For instance, the default initial frequency, 175.25 MHz, might not
necessarily be valid on all cable television networks, but usually will be a
valid NTSC broadcast channel.

If a disconnect happens before initialization is completed, the
pvrusb2 driver can accidentally touch dangling pointers. The whole
initialization function must be protected by the big_lock, and once
inside that lock, the initialization function should abort if it is

Implement timed measurement of encoder operation for the first time it
is run. This allows the driver to note when the encoder has been run
successfully for at least 1/4 second. On top of that implement

Numerous places in the driver need to issue simple commands to the FX2
microcontroller (e.g. only 1 or 2 bytes, no reply needed). Previously
each place that did this, had to take lock, set up a central buffer,
and call the function to perform the handshake. This change puts
these steps into a single spot. This also has the effect of removing
the need to mess with the control lock from numerous places in the

This change significantly rearranges pvr2_context level initialization
and operation:
1. A new kernel thread is set up for management of the context.
2. Destruction of the pvr2_context instance is moved into the kernel
thread. No other context is able to remove the instance; doing
this simplifies lock handling.
3. The callback into pvrusb2-main, which is used to trigger
initialization of each interface, is now issued from this kernel
thread. Previously it had been indirectly issued out of the work
queue thread in pvr2_hdw, which led to deadlock issues if the
interface needed to change a control setting (which in turn
requires dispatch of another work queue entry).
4. Callbacks into the interfaces (via the pvr2_channel structure) are
now issued strictly from this thread. The net result of this is
that such callback functions can now also safely operate driver
controls without deadlocking the work queue. (At the moment this
is not actually a problem, but I'm anticipating issues with this in
the future).
5. There is no longer any need for anyone to enter / exit the
pvr2_context structure. Implementation of the kernel thread here
allows this all to be internal now, simplifying other logic.
6. A very very longstanding issue involving a mutex deadlock between
the pvrusb2 driver and v4l should now be solved. The deadlock
involved the pvr2_context mutex and a globals-protecting mutex in
v4l. During initialization the driver would take the pvr2_context
mutex first then the v4l2 interface would register with v4l and
implicitly take the v4l mutex. Later when v4l would call back into
the driver, the two mutexes could possibly be taken in the opposite
order, a situation that can lead to deadlock. In practice this
really wasn't an issue unless a v4l app tried to start VERY early
after the driver appeared. However it still needed to be solved,
and with the use of the kernel thread relieving need for
pvr2_context mutex, the problem should be finally solved.

The pvrusb2 tear-down logic was clearing two timers before stopping
its internal work queue. That left a tiny window open where the work
queue might run after the timers are stopped, possibly starting them
again. This could lead to dangling pointers and an oops. Solution:
Kill the work queue first, then delete the timers.

This is a new implementation for video pipeline control within the
pvrusb2 driver. Actual start/stop of the pipeline is moved to the
driver's kernel thread. Pipeline stages are controlled autonomously
based on surrounding pipeline or application control state. Kernel
thread management is also cleaned up and moved into the internal
control structure of the driver, solving a set up / tear down race
along the way. Better failure recovery is implemented with this new
control strategy. Also with this change comes better control of the
cx23416 encoder, building on additional information learned about the
peculiarities of controlling this part (this information was the
original trigger for this rework). With this change, overall encoder
stability should be considerably improved. Yes, this is a large
change for this driver, but due to the nature of the feature being
worked on, the changes are fairly pervasive and would be difficult to
break into smaller pieces with any semblence of step-wise stability.
