That's exactly what I proposed. Well, you shouldn't write "deprecated",
because it's not. Just explain - inside this text - when V4L2 should be
preferred over DVB.

That's just stupid. I can easily provide a list of used and valuable
ioctls, which need to remain present in order to not break userspace

legally allowed to do it, you have to first merge and maintain the board
support code before even thinking about multimedia.
