[PATCH 3.16 243/245] [media] media: fix use-after-free in cdev_put() when app exits after driver unbind

commit 5b28dde51d0ccc54cee70756e1800d70bed7114a upstream.

When driver unbinds while media_ioctl is in progress, cdev_put() fails with
when app exits after driver unbinds.

Add devnode struct device kobj as the cdev parent kobject. cdev_add() gets
a reference to it and releases it in cdev_del() ensuring that the devnode
is not deallocated as long as the application has the device file open.

media_devnode_register() initializes the struct device kobj before calling
cdev_add(). media_devnode_unregister() does cdev_del() and then deletes the
device. devnode is released when the last reference to the struct device is
gone.

This problem is found on uvcvideo, em28xx, and au0828 drivers and fix has
been tested on all three.
