* 'v4l_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-2.6: [media] msp3400: fill in v4l2_tuner based on vt->type field [media] tuner-core.c: don't change type field in g_tuner or g_frequency [media] cx18/ivtv: fix g_tuner support [media] tuner-core: power up tuner when called with s_power(1) [media] v4l2-ioctl.c: check for valid tuner type in S_HW_FREQ_SEEK [media] tuner-core: simplify the standard fixup [media] tuner-core/v4l2-subdev: document that the type field has to be filled in [media] v4l2-subdev.h: remove unused s_mode tuner op [media] feature-removal-schedule: change in how radio device nodes are handled [media] bttv: fix s_tuner for radio [media] pvrusb2: fix g/s_tuner support [media] v4l2-ioctl.c: prefill tuner type for g_frequency and g/s_tuner [media] tuner-core: fix tuner_resume: use t->mode instead of t->type [media] tuner-core: fix s_std and s_tuner

+What: For VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY the type field must match the device node's type.
+ If not, return -EINVAL.
+When: 3.2
+Why: It makes no sense to switch the tuner to radio mode by calling
+ VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY on a video node, or to switch the tuner to tv mode by
+ calling VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY on a radio node. This is the first step of a
+ move to more consistent handling of tv and radio tuners.

+
+What: Opening a radio device node will no longer automatically switch the
+ tuner mode from tv to radio.
+When: 3.3
+Why: Just opening a V4L device should not change the state of the hardware
+ like that. It's very unexpected and against the V4L spec. Instead, you
+ switch to radio mode by calling VIDIOC_S_FREQUENCY. This is the second
+ and last step of the move to consistent handling of tv and radio tuners.
