This mutex is meant to stop two devices getting the same ID. dvbdev_get_free_id() 
scans the list of already allocated devices to find a free id.
Unfortunately, since the mutex is unlocked before the card is added to the
above list, it is still possible for two of them to get the same id.
Its debatable whether this mutex lock is actually needed, but I'm unwilling
to just remove it in case something does depend on it.

Mark the f_ops members of inodes as const, as well as fix the
ripple-through this causes by places that copy this f_ops and then "do
stuff" with it.

The conversion was generated via scripts, and the result was validated
automatically via a script as well.

The previous patch adding the ability to nest struct class_device
changed the paramaters to the call class_device_create().  This patch
fixes up all in-kernel users of the function.

Modified dvb_register_adapter() to avoid kmalloc/kfree.  Drivers have to embed
struct dvb_adapter into their private data struct from now on.  (Andreas

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
