Mauro Carvalho Chehab 8e080c2e6c V4L/DVB (12761): DocBook: add media API specs
The V4L and DVB API's are there for a long time. however, up to now,
no efforts were done to merge them to kernel DocBook.

This patch adds the current versions of the specs as an unique compendium.

<para>Start a hardware frequency seek from the current frequency.
To do this applications initialize the <structfield>tuner</structfield>,

<structfield>wrap_around</structfield> fields, and zero out the
<structfield>reserved</structfield> array of a &v4l2-hw-freq-seek; and
call the <constant>VIDIOC_S_HW_FREQ_SEEK</constant> ioctl with a pointer
to this structure.</para>
