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>

62 <para>To query the attributes of a modulator applications initialize
63the <structfield>index</structfield> field and zero out the
64<structfield>reserved</structfield> array of a &v4l2-modulator; and
65call the <constant>VIDIOC_G_MODULATOR</constant> ioctl with a pointer
66to this structure. Drivers fill the rest of the structure or return an
67&EINVAL; when the index is out of bounds. To enumerate all modulators
68applications shall begin at index zero, incrementing by one until the
69driver returns <errorcode>EINVAL</errorcode>.</para>

71 <para>Modulators have two writable properties, an audio
72modulation set and the radio frequency. To change the modulated audio
73subprograms, applications initialize the <structfield>index
74</structfield> and <structfield>txsubchans</structfield> fields and the
75<structfield>reserved</structfield> array and call the
76<constant>VIDIOC_S_MODULATOR</constant> ioctl. Drivers may choose a
77different audio modulation if the request cannot be satisfied. However
78this is a write-only ioctl, it does not return the actual audio
79modulation selected.</para>
