8397703ee0 V4L/DVB (4014): Remove the spagetti code gotos that aren't useful
Some code had pointless gotos that just didn't make any sense.  They didn't
make the code smaller, or faster, or easier to understand.

d09dbf92ad V4L/DVB (3762): Add sysfs device links to dvb devices
Currently in /sys/class/dvb/dvbX.demuxY/ we have:
	dev
	uevent
With the patch, we have (for a PCI DVB device):
	dev
	device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:03:0d.0
	uevent
So userspace tools can (finally) work out which physical device a DVB adapter
refers to. Previously you had to kinda look through dmesg and hope that it
hadn't been dumped out of the buffer. This makes debugging a lot easier if
the system has been up for a long time!
This is done by adding an extra 'struct device *' parameter to
dvb_register_adapter(). It will work with any kind of standard
linux 'device'. Additionally, if someone has an embedded system which does
things differently, they can simply supply 'NULL' and the behaviour will be
as before - the link will simply not appear.

8126fdbc76 [PATCH] fix for race problem in DVB USB drivers (dibusb)
Fixed race between submitting streaming URBs in the driver and starting
the actual transfer in hardware (demodulator and USB controller) which
sometimes lead to garbled data transfers. URBs are now submitted first,
then the transfer is enabled. Dibusb devices and clones are now fully
functional again.
