Merge branch 'v4l_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-2.6
* 'v4l_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-2.6:
[media] msp3400: fill in v4l2_tuner based on vt->type field
[media] tuner-core.c: don't change type field in g_tuner or g_frequency
[media] cx18/ivtv: fix g_tuner support
[media] tuner-core: power up tuner when called with s_power(1)
[media] v4l2-ioctl.c: check for valid tuner type in S_HW_FREQ_SEEK
[media] tuner-core: simplify the standard fixup
[media] tuner-core/v4l2-subdev: document that the type field has to be filled in
[media] v4l2-subdev.h: remove unused s_mode tuner op
[media] feature-removal-schedule: change in how radio device nodes are handled
[media] bttv: fix s_tuner for radio
[media] pvrusb2: fix g/s_tuner support
[media] v4l2-ioctl.c: prefill tuner type for g_frequency and g/s_tuner
[media] tuner-core: fix tuner_resume: use t->mode instead of t->type
[media] tuner-core: fix s_std and s_tuner
