V4L2 exposes parameters that influence buffers sizes through the format
ioctls (VIDIOC_G_FMT, VIDIOC_TRY_FMT, VIDIOC_S_FMT, and possibly
VIDIOC_G_SELECTION and VIDIOC_S_SELECTION). Other parameters not part of
the format structure may also influence buffer sizes or buffer layout in
general. One existing such parameter is rotation, which is implemented
by the V4L2_CID_ROTATE control and thus exposed through the V4L2 control
ioctls.
The interaction between those parameters and buffers is currently only
partially specified by the V4L2 API. In particular interactions between
controls and buffers isn't specified at all. The behaviour of the
VIDIOC_S_FMT and VIDIOC_S_SELECTION ioctls when buffers are allocated is
also not fully specified.
This patch clearly defines and documents the interactions between
formats, selections, controls and buffers.
The preparatory discussions for the documentation change considered
completely disallowing controls that change the buffer size or layout,
in favour of extending the format API with a new ioctl that would bundle
those controls with format information. The idea has been rejected, as
this would essentially be a restricted version of the upcoming request
API that wouldn't bring any additional value.
Another option we have considered was to mandate the use of the request
API to modify controls that influence buffer size or layout. This has
also been rejected on the grounds that requiring the request API to
change rotation even when streaming is stopped would significantly
complicate implementation of drivers and usage of the V4L2 API for
applications.
Applications will however be required to use the upcoming request API to
change at runtime formats or controls that influence the buffer size or
layout, because of the need to synchronize buffers with the formats and
controls. Otherwise there would be no way to interpret the content of a
buffer correctly.

The documentation for video capture and output devices claims that the video standard
ioctls are required. This is not the case, they are only required for PAL/NTSC/SECAM

implement the DV Timings ioctls.

The xvYCC601/709 encodings were mapped by default to full range quantization.
This is actually wrong since these encodings use limited range quantization,
but accept values outside of the limited range.
This makes sense since for values within the limited range it behaves exactly
the same as BT.601 or Rec. 709. The only difference is that with the xvYCC
encodings the values outside of the limited range also produce value colors.
Talking to people who know a lot more about this than I do made me realize
that mapping xvYCC to full range quantization was wrong, so this patch corrects
this and also improves the documentation.
These formats are very rare, and since the formula for decoding these Y'CbCr
encodings is actually fixed and independent of the quantization field value
it is safe to make this change.
The main advantage is that keeps the V4L2 specification in sync with the
corresponding colorspace, HDMI and CEA861 standards when it comes to these
xvYCC formats.

This reverts 'commit 7e0739cd9c ("[media] videodev2.h: fix
sYCC/AdobeYCC default quantization range").
The problem is that many drivers can convert R'G'B' content (often
from sensors) to Y'CbCr, but they all produce limited range Y'CbCr.
To stay backwards compatible the default quantization range for
sRGB and AdobeRGB Y'CbCr encoding should be limited range, not full
range, even though the corresponding standards specify full range.
Update the V4L2_MAP_QUANTIZATION_DEFAULT define accordingly and
also update the documentation.

The PDF files that contain media images were actually generated
offline from their SVG or PNG source files.
Sphinx can handle PNG sources automatially. So, let's just
drop their PDF counterparts.
For SVG, however, Sphinx doesn't produce the right tags to
use the TexLive SVG support. Also, the SVG support is done via
shell execution, with is not nice.
So, while we don't have any support for SVG inside Sphinx
core or as an extension, move the logic to build them to Makefile,
producing the PDF images on runtime.
NOTE: due to the way Sphinx works, the PDF images should be
generated inside the Kernel source tree, as otherwise Sphinx
won't find it, not obeying what's specified by "O=" makefile
parameter.
