With cmwq, there's no reason to use separate out_work_queue. Drop it
and use system_wq instead. The in_work_queue needs to be ordered so
can't use one of the system wqs; however, as it isn't used to reclaim
memory, allocate the workqueue with alloc_ordered_workqueue() without
WQ_MEM_RECLAIM.

The cx18_stream struct contained a struct cx18_dvb for
every stream object, most of which were for analog capture.
Now we only allocate the cx18_dvb object for the DTV TS stream.

buffers
According to the v4l2 spec, very old MPEG index entries needs to be discarded
in favor of newer index entries. This change ensures the firmware always has
buffers for index entries at the expense of the oldest unread buffers.

associated stream
This change starts the IDX stream along with the MPG stream as an internal
use (only) stream much like the VBI stream can be started as an internal use
stream for inserting sliced VBI packets.
The IDX stream is not started automatically with an MPEG strem if the IDX
stream is disabled (no buffers allocated) or if sliced VBI insertion is being
performed by the cx18 driver. The cx18 driver doing sliced VBI insertion
makes the offsets in the IDX stream inaccurate for the final MPEG stream
presented to user space. Since fixing the IDX offsets ourselves is not easy
and we cannot easily do what ivtv does to fix the offsets, we'll make sliced
VBI insertion and MPEG Index capture mutually exclusive for now.

Add a Memory Descriptor List (MDL) layer to buffer handling to implement
scatter-gather I/O. Currently there is still only 1 buffer per MDL.

Simplify the way outgoing work handler gets scheduled to send empty buffers
back to the firmware for use. Also reduced the memory required for scheduling
this outgoing work, by using a single, per stream work object.

to the firmware
This change defers sending all CX18_CPU_DE_SET_MDL commands, for a stream with
an ongoing capture, by adding a work queue to handle sending such commands when
needed. This prevents any sleeps, caused by notifying the firmware of new
usable buffers, when a V4L2 application read() is being satisfied or when
an incoming buffer is processed by the cx18-NN-in work queue thread.

cx18: Avoid making firmware API calls with the queue lock held. The source
of MPEG strem corruption when not holding the queue lock was found to be that
the MPEG buffer could be retrieved by the user app before it was sync'ed for
the host cpu. Incoming buffers are now sync'ed before being put on q_full and
releasing the queue lock. We can thus avoid the sometimes lengthy call to
the firmware for CPU_DE_SET_MDL while holding the queue lock, so we can get
better performance.

cx18: Allow more than 63 capture buffers in rotation per stream. Implement
q_busy to hold buffers the firmware has for use. q_free holds truly unused
buffers in a pool. New buffers are given to the firmware as soon as the
firmware returns one, if there are any to give to the firmware.

mailbox processing
A major rewrite of interrupt handling for incoming mailbox processing, to split
the timing critical steps from the the deferrable steps as the sending XPU on
the CX23418 will time out and overwrite our incoming mailboxes rather quickly.
Setup a pool of work "order forms" for the irq handler to send jobs to the new
work handler routine which uses the kernel default work queue to do the
deferrable work. Started optimizing some of the cx18-io calls as they are now
the low hanging fruit for recoving microseconds back from the timeline.
Future optimizations will get rid of mmio read retries, mmio stats logging, and
combine smaller functions in the irq path into the larger ones to save ~2 us
each.

- don't show kernel backtrace when the allocation of the buffers fails: the
normal ivtv/cx18 messages are clear enough and the backtrace scares users.
- fix cleanup after the buffer allocation fails (caused kernel panic).

Many thanks to Steve Toth from Hauppauge and Nattu Dakshinamurthy from
Conexant for their support. I am in particular thankful to Hauppauge
since without their help this driver would not exist. It should also
be noted that Steve did the work to get the DVB part up and running.
Thank you!
