[media] BKL: trivial BKL removal from V4L2 radio drivers
The patch converts a bunch of V4L2 radio drivers to unlocked_ioctl. These are all simple conversions: most already had a lock and so the ioctl fop could simply be replaced by unlocked_ioctl. radio-miropcm20.c was converted to use the new V4L2 core lock. While doing this work I noticed that many of these drivers initialized some more fields or muted audio or something like that *after* creating the device node. This should be done before the device node is created to prevent problems. Especially hal tends to grab a device node as soon as it is created. In one or two cases the mutex_init was even done after the device creation! Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
