commit 3edfd14bb50fa6f94ed1a37bbb17d9f1c2793b57 upstream.
Previous commit that introduces reference counter does not add proper
comments, which will lead to warning when building htmldocs. Fix them.

[ Upstream commit 0fc044b2b5e2d05a1fa1fb0d7f270367a7855d79 ]
dvb_unregister_device() is known that prone to use-after-free.
That is, the cleanup from dvb_unregister_device() releases the dvb_device
even if there are pointers stored in file->private_data still refer to it.
This patch adds a reference counter into struct dvb_device and delays its
deallocation until no pointer refers to the object.

Having the '*' in the next line separated from the type makes it
hard to see that these functions return a pointer to that type.
Instead, keep it next to the type name so it is clear that it is
a pointer to that type.

Not sure why, but, on ia64, with Linaro's gcc 7.3 compiler,
using #ifdef (CONFIG_I2C) is not OK.
So, replace it by IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_I2C), in order to fix the
builds there.

The dvb_attach()/dvb_detach() methods are ugly hacks designed
to keep using the I2C low-level API. The proper way is to
do I2C bus bindings instead.
Several modules were already converted to use it. Yet,
it is painful to use it, as lots of code need to be
duplicated.
Make it easier by providing two new helper functions:
- dvb_module_probe()
- dvb_module_release()

On several places, whitespaces are being used for indentation,
or even at the end of the line.
Fix them.
