V4L/DVB (5038): Pvrusb2: Implement stream claim checking function
Add (and expose) a new function, pvr2_channel_check_stream_no_lock(), in
pvrusb2-context.c. This is hopefully the last V4L2 interface related patch
to change anything outside pvrusb2-v4l2.c.
We need this to implement the open() for the radio device. The reason is
that within the *enter_context() section of open() we need to ensure nobody
is streaming and if we cannot, we should cleanup after ourselves and return
-EBUSY. We cannot just use claim_stream() because:
1) That would cause a deadlock trying to re-acquire the context lock
2) We only need to ensure that nobody is streaming. We don't need to
actually acquire the stream.
Again, this is a kinda ugly patch. Feel free to improve.
