This allows application developers to determine which particular

We don't want to push the ISDB-T definitions into the kernel until
we have a high level of confidence in the ISDB-T API. More testing
is required before this code is released.

The frontends will be notified (if they chose) of all _get and _set commands
so they can help determine result or action. Results are now returned
to userspace correctly.

The API now assumes that ioctl calls for FE_SET_PROPERTY and all
set commands, and FE_GET_PROPERTY are get commands.

This helps complex demods which support different modulation types

For demod drivers, we want a single tuning function (set_frontend) to have
access to the properly constructed dvb_frontend_parameters structure, or
the cache values - regardless of whether the legacy or new API is being used.
This cuts down on redundant code in the demod drivers and ensures the
tuning parameters are consistent regardless of the API entry type.

After discussion the following changes were made:
1. Removed the typedefs in frontend.h, use structures.
2. In the frontend.h, remove the 16 command limit on the API and
switch to a flexible variable length API. For practical reasons
a #define limits this to 64, this should be discussed.
3. Changed dvb-core ioctl handing to deal with variable sequences
of commands.
tune-v0.0.3.c is required to use this API, it contains the interface changes.

SET_TONE and SET_VOLTAGE were not previously implemented. Two options
existed. Either cut/paste from the previous ioctl handler into the
process_properties function, which is code duplication. Or, split
the current ioctl handler into it's two major pieces.
Piece 1, responsible for input validation and semaphore acquiring
Piece 2 the processing of the previous ioctls
and finally, a new third pieces where the array of properties
is processed, and can freely call the legacy ioctl handler without
having to re-acquire the fepriv->sem semaphore. This is a clean approach
and ensures the existing legacy ioctls are processed as they were previously
(but with an extra function call) and allows the new API to share code
without duplication.

This is an experimental patch to add a new tuning mechanism for
dvb frontends. Rather than passing fixed structures across the
user/kernel boundary, which need to be revised for each new modulation
type (or feature the kernel developers want to add), this implements
a simpler message based approach, allowing fe commands to be broken
down into a series of small fixed size transactions, presented
in an array.
The goal is to avoid changing the user/kernel ABI in the future, by
simply creating new frontend commands (and sequencies of commands) that
help us add support for brand new demodulator, delivery system or
statistics related commmands.
known issues:
checkpatch voilations
feedback from various developers yet to be implemented, relating
to namespace conventions, variable length array passing conventions,
and generally some optimization.
This patch should support all existing tuning mechanisms through the
new API, as well as adding 8PSK, DVB-S2 NBC-QPSK and ISDB-T API support.
For testing and exercise purposes, see the latest tune.c tool

Introduce freezer-friendly wrappers around wait_event_interruptible() and
wait_event_interruptible_timeout(), originally defined in <linux/wait.h>, to
be used in freezable kernel threads. Make some of the freezable kernel
threads use them.
This is necessary for the freezer to stop sending signals to kernel threads,
which is implemented in the next patch.
