The V4L2 subdevs have managed without centralized locking for the state
(previously pad_config), as the try-state is supposedly safe (although I
believe two TRY ioctls for the same fd would race), and the
active-state, and its locking, is managed by the drivers internally.
We now have active-state in a centralized position, and need locking.
Strictly speaking the locking is only needed for new drivers that use
the new state, as the current drivers continue behaving as they used to.
However, active-state locking is complicated by the fact that currently
the real active-state of a subdev is split into multiple parts: the new
v4l2_subdev_state, subdev control state, and subdev's internal state.
In the future all these three states should be combined into one state
(the v4l2_subdev_state), and then a single lock for the state should be
sufficient.
But to solve the current split-state situation we need to share locks
between the three states. This is accomplished by using the same lock
management as the control handler does: we use a pointer to a mutex,
allowing the driver to override the default mutex. Thus the driver can
do e.g.:
sd->state_lock = sd->ctrl_handler->lock;
before calling v4l2_subdev_init_finalize(), resulting in sharing the
same lock between the states and the controls.
The locking model for active-state is such that any subdev op that gets
the state as a parameter expects the state to be already locked by the
caller, and expects the caller to release the lock.

v4l2_subdev_alloc_state() and v4l2_subdev_free_state() are not supposed
to be used by the drivers. However, we do have a few drivers that use
those at the moment, so we need to expose these functions for the time
being.
Prefix the functions with __ to mark the functions as internal.
At the same time, rename them to v4l2_subdev_state_alloc and
v4l2_subdev_state_free to match the style used for other functions like
video_device_alloc() and media_request_alloc().
