media: Wrap file->private_data access with a helper function
Accessing file->private_data manually to retrieve the v4l2_fh pointer is error-prone, as the field is a void * and will happily convert implicitly to any pointer type. To avoid direct access to file->private_data, introduce a new inline function that retrieves the v4l2_fh pointer, and use it to replace common access patterns through the kernel. Changes to drivers have been generated with the following coccinelle semantic patch: @@ struct file *filp; identifier fh; @@ - struct v4l2_fh *fh = filp->private_data; + struct v4l2_fh *fh = file_to_v4l2_fh(filp); Manual changes have been applied to Documentation/ to update the usage patterns, and to include/media/v4l2-fh.h to add the new function. While at it, fix a typo in the title of v4l2-fh.rst: the file describes the "file handles" API, not "file handlers". No functional change is intended, this only paves the way to remove direct accesses to file->private_data and make V4L2 drivers safer. Other accesses to the field will be addressed separately.
