API to it, and update the chapter's introduction accordingly.

On several tables, the color sample location table preamble is
written as:
Color Sample Location..
Instead of:
Color Sample Location:
I suspect that the repetition of such pattern was due to some
copy-and-paste (or perhaps some error during DocBook conversion).
Anyway, fix it.

While doing a visual inspection with Sphinx 1.5, I noticed that
one of the columns was smaller than the text written there.
As this is the only thing I noticed with Sphinx 1.5, I suspect
that this was also a problem with Sphinx 1.4. Yet, I opted to
touch it in a way that wouldn't cause backward issues.

It doesn't make any sense having a driver programming's chapter
at the uAPI book, as this is related to kernel API. Also,
we now have such kAPI book where V4L2 driver programming is covered.
So, get rid of this left-over.

A literal box provides a better visual when pdf and html output

It alsod matches other conventions used within the media book.

Commit 70b074df4e ("media: fix pdf build with Spinx 1.6") caused
a regression at Sphinx 1.4 PDF build: although it produces a full
document in batch mode, it returns errors on interactive mode:
[63]
Runaway argument?
{\relax
! Paragraph ended before \multicolumn was complete.
<to be read again>
\par
l.7703 \hline\end{tabulary}
The error seems to be due to some bug at Sphinx PDF output:
when multicolumns is used, it doesn't accept an empty string.
Just removing the :cpan:`1` and replacing by two empty
columns fix the issue.

On tests with Spinx 1.4, some tables are still writing text
outside cells. Adjust those tables.
PS.: As this was revisited several times, I suspect that this
will only be fully fixed if we add tabularcolumns to all tables
at the V4L2 part of the book.

In the past, V4L2 versions were 0.x.y, but that changed years
ago. Since Kernel 3.1, however, the numbering schema was changed
to match the Kernel version.
However, the presented example still uses the old numerating
schema, with is a misleading information.
So, update it to the new schema.

Usually, CA messages are sent/received via reading/writing at
the CA device node. However, two drivers (dst_ca and firedtv-ci)
also implement it via ioctls.
Apparently, on both cases, the net result is the same.
Anyway, let's document it.

Do minor editorial changes to improve documentation readability:
- mark literals as such;
- add table markups to hint sizes;
- define what PES means;
- instead of hardcoding devnode numbers to zero (like adapter0/) use a
question mark, to indicate that multiple devnodes may exist;
- add cross-references where useful.

In the past, the documentation used to say that, if a CRC error

The usage of the term "DVB" at the dvb API docs is confusing,
as, right now, it can refer to either the European digital TV
standard or to the subsystem.
So, prefer calling it as "Digital TV" on most places, to avoid
ambiguity.

There are several issues on the return value for ioctls:
- Text is confusing;
- Some error codes don't exist;
- The non-generic error codes should come before the text
that points to the generic error codes;
- Tables don't contain column size hints;
- Some references are not marked as such.

Instead of having one chapter per file, place all of them at
the same chapter. That better organize the chapters at the uAPI

As a side effect, now all uAPI headers are at the same page,

index for the spec.

For most of the stuff there, documenting is easy, as the

This ioctl seems to be some attempt to support a feature
at the bt8xx dst_ca driver. Yet, as said there, it
"needs more work". Right now, the code there is just

documented anywhere (except for "needs more work").

Both CA and decoders are optional. Also, the presence or
absence has nothing to do on being a PCI card or not.
Nowadays, most hardware leaves the decoders to either the
GPU or to some ISP inside the SoC, instead of implementing
it inside the Digital TV part of the device.
So, change the wording to reflect the hardware changes.
