media: uvcvideo: Silence memcpy() run-time false positive warnings

The memcpy() in uvc_video_decode_meta() intentionally copies across the
length and flags members and into the trailing buf flexible array.
Split the copy so that the compiler can better reason about (the lack
of) buffer overflows here. Avoid the run-time false positive warning:

memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 12) of single field "&meta->length" at drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_video.c:1355 (size 1)

Additionally fix a typo in the documentation for struct uvc_meta_buf.

media: uvcvideo: Use standard names for menus

Instead of duplicating the menu info, use the one from the core.
Also, do not use extra memory for 1:1 mappings.

media: uvcvideo: Send a control event when a Control Change interrupt arrives

UVC defines a method of handling asynchronous controls, which sends a
USB packet over the interrupt pipe. This patch implements support for
such packets by sending a control event to the user. Since this can
involve USB traffic and, therefore, scheduling, this has to be done
in a work queue.

# 088ead25 06-Dec-2017 Guennadi Liakhovetski <guennadi.liakhovetski@intel.com>

media: uvcvideo: Add a metadata device node

Some UVC video cameras contain metadata in their payload headers. This
patch extracts that data, adding more clock synchronisation information,
on both bulk and isochronous endpoints and makes it available to the user
space on a separate video node, using the V4L2_CAP_META_CAPTURE capability
and the V4L2_BUF_TYPE_META_CAPTURE buffer queue type. By default, only the
V4L2_META_FMT_UVC pixel format is available from those nodes. However,
cameras can be added to the device ID table to additionally specify their
own metadata format, in which case that format will also become available
from the metadata node.

[Use put_unaligned instead of __put_unaligned_cpu64]
[Use put_unaligned for the sof field as well]

# 6f52b16c 01-Nov-2017 Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no license

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:

NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.

Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.
