Merge tag 'media/v5.8-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media
Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
- Media documentation is now split into admin-guide, driver-api and
userspace-api books (a longstanding request from Jon);
- The media Kconfig was reorganized, in order to make easier to select
drivers and their dependencies;
- The testing drivers now has a separate directory;
- added a new driver for Rockchip Video Decoder IP;
- The atomisp staging driver was resurrected. It is meant to work with
4 generations of cameras on Atom-based laptops, tablets and cell
phones. So, it seems worth investing time to cleanup this driver and
making it in good shape.
- Added some V4L2 core ancillary routines to help with h264 codecs;
- Added an ov2740 image sensor driver;
- The si2157 gained support for Analog TV, which, in turn, added
support for some cx231xx and cx23885 boards to also support analog
standards;
- Added some V4L2 controls (V4L2_CID_CAMERA_ORIENTATION and
V4L2_CID_CAMERA_SENSOR_ROTATION) to help identifying where the camera
is located at the device;
- VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT was extended to support MC-centric devices;
- Lots of drivers improvements and cleanups.

CEC devices set the ``POLLIN`` and ``POLLRDNORM`` flags in +the ``revents`` field if there are messages in the receive queue. If the +transmit queue has room for new messages, the ``POLLOUT`` and +``POLLWRNORM`` flags are set. If there are events in the event queue, +then the ``POLLPRI`` flag is set. When the function times out it returns +a value of zero, on failure it returns -1 and the ``errno`` variable is +set appropriately. + +For more details see the :c:func:`poll() <cec-poll>` manual page. + + +Return Value +============ + +On success, :c:func:`poll() <cec-poll>` returns the number structures which have +non-zero ``revents`` fields, or zero if the call timed out. On error -1 +is returned, and the ``errno`` variable is set appropriately: + +``EBADF`` + One or more of the ``ufds`` members specify an invalid file + descriptor. + +``EFAULT`` + ``ufds`` references an inaccessible memory area. + +``EINTR`` + The call was interrupted by a signal. + +``EINVAL`` + The ``nfds`` value exceeds the ``RLIMIT_NOFILE`` value.
