V4L/DVB (8098): xc5000: add module option to load firmware during driver attach
The xc5000 firmware download process can be slow on certain devices.
Add a module option, "init_fw" to perform the firmware download during
xc5000_attach(), which would get the firmware download over with well
before any tune request is made.
When this option is enabled, it will reduce the time it takes to get a
signal lock during the first tune after driver load, but will add a few
seconds to the driver initialization.

me to implement a horrible ugly thunking mechanism (i.e. infer the
missing data through the use of dedicated cookie cutter bounce

passes enough additional information to the show / store functions
that we no longer need the hack. So eliminate all the crap. Yay!

by commit b2b2cbc4b2a2f389442549399a993a8306420baf. When a parent
ignores SIGCHLD (or uses SA_NOCLDWAIT), its children would self-reap
but they don't if it's using ptrace on them. When the parent thread
later exits and ceases to ptrace a child but leaves other live
threads in the parent's thread group, any zombie children are left
dangling. The fix makes them self-reap then, as they would have
done earlier if ptrace had not been in use.

This makes do_wait return the error returned by security_task_wait()

permission error will give the user a clue to look for security policy
problems, rather than for mysterious wait bugs.
