A kernel timer is now used as the vehicle to periodically call the
channel_interrupt function of registered visor drivers, instead of a
workqueue.
This simplifies a lot of things by making periodic_work.c and
periodic_work.h no longer necessary. This change also means that the
channel_interrupt() callbacks registered by visor drivers (via
visorbus_register_visor_driver()) will now be called in atomic context
(i.e., canNOT sleep) rather than kernel thread context (CAN sleep).
Fortunately this did NOT necessitate any change to the existing
channel_interrupt() callbacks, because none of them ever perform any
operations that would be invalid in atomic context.

Locking in the _interrupt() function is NOT necessary so long as we ensure
that interrupts have been stopped whenever we need to pause or resume the
device, which we now do.
While a device is paused, we ensure that interrupts stay disabled, i.e.
that the _interrupt() function will NOT be called, yet remember the desired
state in devdata->interrupts_enabled if open() or close() are called are
called while the device is paused. Then when the device is resumed, we
restore the actual state of interrupts (i.e., whether _interrupt() is going
to be called or not) to the desired state in devdata->interrupts_enabled.

This patch removes the debug print in case an HDM ran out of rx buffers.
This is not needed since the status is reflected in the sysfs
channel_starving flag. Additionally, it prevents the system form slowing
down.

If a DIM2 channel is being closed while it is busy, the channels's status
flag could possibly stay active for this very channel. This causes the
kernel to freeze by the time the channel is opened again.
This patch fixes the problem.

The function aim_register_videodev() uses the variables 'ret' and
'retval' to represent the same value.
This patch removes 'retval' and replaces it with 'ret'. Further, it
replaces the constant return value '-ENODEV' with the result returned by
function video_register_device() in the event something went wrong.

This patch makes use of hardware dependent names for the video devices and
allows the user to choose the names for the V4L devices.
