Mauro Carvalho Chehab 3de530f805 [media] DVB: Point to the generic error chapter
Just like the V4L, MC and LIRC API's, point to the generic error
chapter for ioctl's. This will allow moving generic error codes
to just one place inside all media API's.

A latter patch will remove the generic errors from each specific
ioctl.

<para>This system call opens a named ca device (e.g. /dev/ost/ca) for subsequent use.</para>
<para>When an open() call has succeeded, the device will be ready for use.
The significance of blocking or non-blocking mode is described in the
documentation for functions where there is a difference. It does not affect the
semantics of the open() call itself. A device opened in blocking mode can later
be put into non-blocking mode (and vice versa) using the F_SETFL command
of the fcntl system call. This is a standard system call, documented in the Linux
manual page for fcntl. Only one user can open the CA Device in O_RDWR
mode. All other attempts to open the device in this mode will fail, and an error
code will be returned.</para>
