V4L/DVB (12761): DocBook: add media API specs
The V4L and DVB API's are there for a long time. however, up to now, no efforts were done to merge them to kernel DocBook. This patch adds the current versions of the specs as an unique compendium. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>

90<para>This system call opens a named ca device (e.g. /dev/ost/ca) for subsequent use.</para>
91<para>When an open() call has succeeded, the device will be ready for use.
92 The significance of blocking or non-blocking mode is described in the
93 documentation for functions where there is a difference. It does not affect the
94 semantics of the open() call itself. A device opened in blocking mode can later
95 be put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa) using the F_SETFL command
96 of the fcntl system call. This is a standard system call, documented in the Linux
97 manual page for fcntl. Only one user can open the CA Device in O_RDWR
98 mode. All other attempts to open the device in this mode will fail, and an error
99 code will be returned.</para>
