USB: add zr364xx V4L2 driver

[Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab (at) infradead.org>]

Hi Antoine,

A few comments:

> +#include <linux/videodev.h>
Why are you including the old header? Probably you are using some
obsolete stuff. You should instead include videodev2.h, removing the old
style from kernel 2.4 times.

Why do duplicate USB ids? Take a look at the way em28xx-cards do link usb_device_id table with device data.

Instead of those, you should call v4l1_compat to allow your driver to
work with older apps.

The better way would be to use video_ioctl2 handler that will call the
proper backward compatibility functions. As a side effect, it will also
implement a proper set of debug prints for ioctls.

There are some drivers already converted to the newer way: cafe_ccic,
vivi, cx88-video (and some radio drivers). The better would be if you
look at cafe_ccic (since this is also a driver for a webcam).

You don't need to use .hardware. Just remove this and don't touch videodev.h, since those stuff are obsolete.

Also, instead of calling the functions as:
	zoran_foo
You should, instead, call them as 
	zr34xx_ foo
Since zoran driver already use zoran_foo for their internal functions.
This helps avoiding possible future conflicts if, for some reason, a
static symbol should be transformed later into an exported one.

Cheers,
Mauro
