17611d3fb4 media: videodev2.h: drop V4L2_CAP_ASYNCIO
The V4L2_CAP_ASYNCIO capability was never implemented (and in fact
it isn't clear what it was supposed to do in the first place).

Drop it from the capabilities list. Keep it in videodev2.h with the
other defines under ifndef __KERNEL__ for backwards compatibility.

This will free up a capability bit for other future uses. And having
an unused and undefined I/O method is just plain confusing.

fea13a6935 media: docs: uAPI: fix table output in LaTeX/PDF format
There are lots of tables that are not properly displayed
in LaTeX/PDF.

Fix the tablecolumns, add longtable where needed and LaTeX
formatting macros, in order to address such issues.

571610162b media: docs: sliced-vbi: fix V4L2_SLICED_WSS_625 docs
While fixing issues with PDF generation, I noticed that
bit 8 was missing for WSS 625 format.

While here, convert the literal block into a tables,
as it becomes more visible.

I opted to move the payload into a separate table, as
Sphinx has troubles with complex nested tables.

This way, it should work fine on both html and LaTeX/PDF
formats.

407e84cd1e media: docs: make V4L documents more compatible with Sphinx 3.1+
Sphinx 3.x broke support for the cdomain.py extension, as the
c domain code was rewritten. Due to that, the c tags need to
be re-written, in order to use the new c domain notation.

059b1c5b15 media: docs: use the new SPDX header for GFDL-1.1 on *.rst files
SPDX v3.10 gained support for GFDL-1.1 with no invariant sections:

	https://spdx.org/licenses/GFDL-1.1-no-invariants-or-later.html

So, remove the license text, replacing them by this new SPDX
license.

The documentation reported service_set as a __u32, but according to
videodev2.h it is a __u16. Correct the documentation.

32e2eae23f media: docs: move user-facing docs to the admin guide
Most of the driver-specific documentation is meant to help
users of the media subsystem.

Move them to the admin-guide.

It should be noticed, however, that several of those files
are outdated and will require further work in order to make
them useful again.

54f38fcae5 media: docs: move uAPI book to userspace-api/media
Since 2017, there is an space reserved for userspace API,
created by changeset 1d596dee38 ("docs: Create a user-space API guide").

As the media subsystem was one of the first subsystems to use
Sphinx, until this patch, we were keeping things on a separate
place.

Let's just use the new location, as having all uAPI altogether
will likely make things easier for developers.
