media: v4l2-subdev: Add which field to struct v4l2_subdev_frame_interval
Due to a historical mishap, the v4l2_subdev_frame_interval structure
is the only part of the V4L2 subdev userspace API that doesn't contain a
'which' field. This prevents trying frame intervals using the subdev
'TRY' state mechanism.
Adding a 'which' field is simple as the structure has 8 reserved fields.
This would however break userspace as the field is currently set to 0,
corresponding to V4L2_SUBDEV_FORMAT_TRY, while the corresponding ioctls
currently operate on the 'ACTIVE' state. We thus need to add a new
subdev client cap, V4L2_SUBDEV_CLIENT_CAP_INTERVAL_USES_WHICH, to
indicate that userspace is aware of this new field.
All drivers that implement the subdev .get_frame_interval() and
.set_frame_interval() operations are updated to return -EINVAL when
operating on the TRY state, preserving the current behaviour.
While at it, fix a bad copy&paste in the documentation of the struct
v4l2_subdev_frame_interval_enum 'which' field.
