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.

+Digital TV Frontend API
+#######################
+
+The Digital TV frontend API was designed to support three groups of delivery
+systems: Terrestrial, cable and Satellite. Currently, the following
+delivery systems are supported:
+
+-  Terrestrial systems: DVB-T, DVB-T2, ATSC, ATSC M/H, ISDB-T, DVB-H,
+   DTMB, CMMB
+
+-  Cable systems: DVB-C Annex A/C, ClearQAM (DVB-C Annex B)
+
+-  Satellite systems: DVB-S, DVB-S2, DVB Turbo, ISDB-S, DSS
+
+The Digital TV frontend controls several sub-devices including:
+
+-  Tuner
+
+-  Digital TV demodulator
+
+-  Low noise amplifier (LNA)
+
+-  Satellite Equipment Control (SEC) [#f1]_.
+
+The frontend can be accessed through ``/dev/dvb/adapter?/frontend?``.
+Data types and ioctl definitions can be accessed by including
+``linux/dvb/frontend.h`` in your application.
+
+.. note::
+
+   Transmission via the internet (DVB-IP) and MMT (MPEG Media Transport)
+   is not yet handled by this API but a future extension is possible.
+
+.. [#f1]
+
+   On Satellite systems, the API support for the Satellite Equipment
+   Control (SEC) allows to power control and to send/receive signals to
+   control the antenna subsystem, selecting the polarization and choosing
+   the Intermediate Frequency IF) of the Low Noise Block Converter Feed
+   Horn (LNBf). It supports the DiSEqC and V-SEC protocols. The DiSEqC
+   (digital SEC) specification is available at
+   `Eutelsat <http://www.eutelsat.com/satellites/4_5_5.html>`__.
