[media] pwc: better usb disconnect handling
Unplugging a pwc cam while an app has the /dev/video# node open leads to an oops in pwc_video_close when the app closes the node, because the disconnect handler has free-ed the pdev struct pwc_video_close tries to use. Instead of adding some sort of bandaid for this. fix it properly using the v4l2 core's new(ish) behavior of keeping the v4l2_dev structure around until both unregister has been called, and all file handles referring to it have been closed: Embed the v4l2_dev structure in the pdev structure and define a v4l2 dev release callback releasing the pdev structure (and thus also the embedded v4l2 dev structure.

173/* Okay, this is some magic that I worked out and the reasoning behind it...
174
175 The biggest problem with any USB device is of course: "what to do
176 when the user unplugs the device while it is in use by an application?"
177 We have several options:
178 1) Curse them with the 7 plagues when they do (requires divine intervention)
179 2) Tell them not to (won't work: they'll do it anyway)
180 3) Oops the kernel (this will have a negative effect on a user's uptime)
181 4) Do something sensible.
182
183 Of course, we go for option 4.
184
185 It happens that this device will be linked to two times, once from
186 usb_device and once from the video_device in their respective 'private'
187 pointers. This is done when the device is probed() and all initialization
188 succeeded. The pwc_device struct links back to both structures.
189
190 When a device is unplugged while in use it will be removed from the
191 list of known USB devices; I also de-register it as a V4L device, but
192 unfortunately I can't free the memory since the struct is still in use
193 by the file descriptor. This free-ing is then deferend until the first
194 opportunity. Crude, but it works.
195
196 A small 'advantage' is that if a user unplugs the cam and plugs it back
197 in, it should get assigned the same video device minor, but unfortunately
198 it's non-trivial to re-link the cam back to the video device... (that
199 would surely be magic! :))
