There is no need for a global inverted alpha capability since all the

Michael Schimek requested the addition of inverted alpha framebuffer
caps/flags to support such hardware.
'Normal' alpha uses this formula to mix the framebuffer and video:
output = fb pixel * fb alpha + video pixel * (1 - fb alpha)
and the 'inverted' alpha uses this formula:
output = fb pixel * (1 - fb alpha) + video pixel * fb alpha

Reverted the change to struct v4l2_pix_format. I completely missed that
this struct was used by existing ioctls so that changing it broke the ABI.
I will have to think of another way of setting the top/left coordinates
but for now this change is reverted to preserve compatibility.

VIDIOC_G_CHIP_IDENT improves debugging of card problems: it can be
used to detect which chips are on the board and based on that information
selected register dumps can be made, making it easy to debug complicated
media chips containing tens or hundreds of registers.
This ioctl replaces the internal VIDIOC_INT_G_CHIP_IDENT ioctl.

videodev2.h contains just the V4L2 API structs and defines.
By allowing this header file to be dual GPL/BSD will enable sharing
userspace apps between Linux and *BSD systems. It will also allow developing
newer BSD licensed drivers that can be shared on Linux and *BSD.
It should be noticed that most of the current V4L drivers, and v4l core
itself are GPL only. This won't be changed by this patch.

The direct register access ioctls were defined as kernel internal only,
but they are very useful for debugging hardware from userspace and are
used as such. Officially export them.
VIDIOC_INT_[SG]_REGISTER is renamed to VIDIOC_DBG_[SG]_REGISTER
Definition of ioctl and struct v4l2_register is moved from v4l2-common.h
to videodev2.h.
Types used in struct v4l2_register are changed to the userspace
exportable versions (u32 -> __u32, etc).
Use of VIDIOC_DBG_S_REGISTER requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN permission, so move
the check into the video_ioctl2() dispatcher so it doesn't need to be
duplicated in each driver's call-back function. CAP_SYS_ADMIN check is
added to pvrusb2 (which doesn't use video_ioctl2).
