Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:

 - Media documentation is now split into admin-guide, driver-api and
   userspace-api books (a longstanding request from Jon);

 - The media Kconfig was reorganized, in order to make easier to select
   drivers and their dependencies;

 - The testing drivers now has a separate directory;

 - added a new driver for Rockchip Video Decoder IP;

 - The atomisp staging driver was resurrected. It is meant to work with
   4 generations of cameras on Atom-based laptops, tablets and cell
   phones. So, it seems worth investing time to cleanup this driver and
   making it in good shape.

 - Added some V4L2 core ancillary routines to help with h264 codecs;

 - Added an ov2740 image sensor driver;

 - The si2157 gained support for Analog TV, which, in turn, added
   support for some cx231xx and cx23885 boards to also support analog
   standards;

 - Added some V4L2 controls (V4L2_CID_CAMERA_ORIENTATION and
   V4L2_CID_CAMERA_SENSOR_ROTATION) to help identifying where the camera
   is located at the device;

 - VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT was extended to support MC-centric devices;

 - Lots of drivers improvements and cleanups.

<content type='text'>
Add the ability to automatically pick the highest resolution video mode
(defined as the product of vertical and horizontal resolution) by using
a command-line argument of the form
	video=efifb:auto

If there are multiple modes with the highest resolution, pick one with
the highest color depth.

<title>media: docs: move uAPI book to userspace-api/media</title>

<content type='text'>
Since 2017, there is an space reserved for userspace API,
created by changeset 1d596dee3862 ("docs: Create a user-space API guide").

As the media subsystem was one of the first subsystems to use
Sphinx, until this patch, we were keeping things on a separate
place.

Let's just use the new location, as having all uAPI altogether
will likely make things easier for developers.

Probably most useful if you want no logo at all, or if you only want one
logo regardless of how many CPU cores you have.

<title>drm/modes: parse_cmdline: Add support for specifying panel_orientation (v2)</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4e7a4a6fbdc669c44e6079f9d5eb25673749455f</id>
<content type='text'>
Sometimes we want to override a connector's panel_orientation from the
kernel commandline. Either for testing and for special cases, e.g. a kiosk
like setup which uses a TV mounted in portrait mode.

Users can already specify a "rotate" option through a video= kernel cmdline
option. But that only supports 0/180 degrees (see drm_client_modeset TODO)
and only works for in kernel modeset clients, not for userspace kms users.

The "panel-orientation" connector property OTOH does support 90/270 degrees
as it leaves dealing with the rotation up to userspace and this does work
for userspace kms clients (at least those which support this property).

Changes in v2:
-Add missing ':' after @panel_orientation (reported by kbuild test robot)
