[media] feature-removal-schedule: change in how radio device nodes are handled
Radio devices have weird side-effects when used with combined TV/radio tuners and the V4L2 spec is ambiguous on how it should work. This results in inconsistent driver behavior which makes life hard for everyone. Be more strict in when and how the switch between radio and tv mode takes place and make sure all drivers behave the same.

----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
What: For VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY the type field must match the device node's type.
|
||||
If not, return -EINVAL.
|
||||
When: 3.2
|
||||
Why: It makes no sense to switch the tuner to radio mode by calling
|
||||
VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY on a video node, or to switch the tuner to tv mode by
|
||||
calling VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY on a radio node. This is the first step of a
|
||||
move to more consistent handling of tv and radio tuners.

|

|

----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
What: Opening a radio device node will no longer automatically switch the
|
||||
tuner mode from tv to radio.
|
||||
When: 3.3
|
||||
Why: Just opening a V4L device should not change the state of the hardware
|
||||
like that. It's very unexpected and against the V4L spec. Instead, you
|
||||
switch to radio mode by calling VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY. This is the second
|
||||
and last step of the move to consistent handling of tv and radio tuners.
