Mauro Carvalho Chehab e8be7e97e6 [media] docs-rst: convert uAPI structs to C domain
instead of declaring the uAPI structs using usual refs, e. g.:
	.. _foo-struct:

Use the C domain way:
	.. c:type:: foo_struct

This way, the kAPI documentation can use cross-references to
point to the uAPI symbols.

That solves about ~100 undefined warnings like:
	WARNING: c:type reference target not found: foo_struct

ioctl MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES
*****************************
Name
====
MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES - Enumerate entities and their properties
Synopsis
========
.. c:function:: int ioctl( int fd, MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES, struct media_entity_desc *argp )
:name: MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES
Arguments
=========
``fd``
File descriptor returned by :ref:`open() <media-func-open>`.
``argp``
Description
===========
To query the attributes of an entity, applications set the id field of a
struct :c:type:`media_entity_desc` structure and
call the MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES ioctl with a pointer to this
structure. The driver fills the rest of the structure or returns an
EINVAL error code when the id is invalid.
.. _media-ent-id-flag-next:
Entities can be enumerated by or'ing the id with the
``MEDIA_ENT_ID_FLAG_NEXT`` flag. The driver will return information
about the entity with the smallest id strictly larger than the requested
one ('next entity'), or the ``EINVAL`` error code if there is none.
Entity IDs can be non-contiguous. Applications must *not* try to
enumerate entities by calling MEDIA_IOC_ENUM_ENTITIES with increasing
id's until they get an error.

- .. row 1
- __u32
- ``id``
-
-
- Entity id, set by the application. When the id is or'ed with

Return Value
============
On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
EINVAL
The struct :c:type:`media_entity_desc` ``id``
references a non-existing entity.
