It basically brings v4l(2) of the 2.4.26 kernel to 2.6 level, including
the v4l2 API + new drivers (which depend on v4l2).

I'm not going to submit v4l2 for 2.4, people better should go with 2.6
of they need it.  The only bits I can think of merging are the updates
for bttv-cards.c, i.e. support for some new tv cards.  New cards are
rare these days through as new cards usually don't use bt878-based
designs any more.  Also it is low priority on my todo list and I'm just
back from two weeks holiday with alot of pending stuff, so don't expect
me looking at this soon (maybe not at all).
