ktime_set(S,N) was required for the timespec storage type and is still
useful for situations where a Seconds and Nanoseconds part of a time value
needs to be converted. For anything where the Seconds argument is 0, this
is pointless and can be replaced with a simple assignment.

Commit da677fe143 ("[media] dvb-core/en50221: use kref to manage

kref callback, but that left lots of stale device state visible to

dvb_free_device() instead of dvb_unregister_device(), we can avoid
that.

dvb_unregister_device() has a major problem: it combines unregistering
with memory disposal. Sometimes, it is necessary to unregister a
device, but no memory can be freed yet, because a process still has a
(stale) file handle. Therefore, we need to split
dvb_unregister_device(). This will allow sanitizing a few callers.
With my new design, dvb_unregister_device() appears misnamed, but to
reduce patch noise, I'm not renaming it just yet.

The dvb_filter.c can hardly be considered as part of the DVB
core. More than half of the code there is commented out by
av7110 and ttusb_dec.
On the latter, just two small helper functions and a struct
definition is used.
Being part of the core means that it would require an
amount of work to fix issues in it, like bad printk's
on it, and to document it on some future, like other kAPI
headers. It simply not worth the effort for something that
seems to be deprecated, as no new drivers use it.
So, move it out of the core, by moving it to pci/ttpci
directory, where av7110 driver is kept, and copy the two
routines used by ttyusb_dec directly into its code.

With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by
eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as
deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been
audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means
they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu
prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of
out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it.
Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using
eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you
couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set
to 4096 to remedy that.

GET_FRONTEND and G_PROPERTY can be called anytime, even when the
tuner/demod is not fully locked. However, several parameters
returned by those calls are available only after the demod get
VITERBI lock.
While several drivers do the right thing by checking the status before
returning the parameter, some drivers simply blindly update the
DTV properties cache without checking if the registers at the
hardware contain valid values.
Due to that, programs that call G_PROPERTY (or GET_FRONTEND)
before having a tuner lock may interfere at the zigzag logic,
as the DVB kthread calls the set_frontend() callback several
times, to fine tune the frequency and to identify if the signal
is inverted or not.
While the drivers should be fixed to report the right status,
we should prevent that such bugs would actually interfere at the
device operation.
So, let's use a separate var for userspace calls to get frontend.
As we copy the content of the cache, this should not cause any
troubles.
Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@osg.samsung.com>
Instead of using the DTV properties cache directly, pass the get
frontend data as an argument. For now, everything should remain
the same, but the next patch will prevent get_frontend to
affect the global cache.
This is needed because several drivers don't care enough to only
change the properties if locked. Due to that, calling
G_PROPERTY before locking on those drivers will make them to
never lock. Ok, those drivers are crap and should never be
merged like that, but the core should not rely that the drivers
would be doing the right thing.
