f3d092b84a V4L/DVB (5304): Improve chip matching in v4l2_register
The chip matching in struct v4l2_register for VIDIOC_DBG_G/S_REGISTER 
was rather primitive. It could not be extended to other busses besides 
i2c and it lacked a way to.

62d50addf0 V4L/DVB (5163): Add checks for CAP_SYS_ADMIN to VIDIOC_DBG_G_REGISTER
Before, root privileges were only needed to set hardware registers, not
to read them.  On some hardware, reading from the wrong place at the
wrong time can hang the machine.  So, to be consistent, root privileges
are required to read registers on all hardware.

52ebc763d8 V4L/DVB (5146): Make VIDIOC_INT_[SG]_REGISTER ioctls no longer internal only
The direct register access ioctls were defined as kernel internal only,
but they are very useful for debugging hardware from userspace and are
used as such.  Officially export them.

VIDIOC_INT_[SG]_REGISTER is renamed to VIDIOC_DBG_[SG]_REGISTER 
Definition of ioctl and struct v4l2_register is moved from v4l2-common.h 
to videodev2.h.

Types used in struct v4l2_register are changed to the userspace 
exportable versions (u32 -> __u32, etc). 

Use of VIDIOC_DBG_S_REGISTER requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN permission, so move 
the check into the video_ioctl2() dispatcher so it doesn't need to be 
duplicated in each driver's call-back function. CAP_SYS_ADMIN check is 
added to pvrusb2 (which doesn't use video_ioctl2).
