Mauro Carvalho Chehab be0270ec89 [media] Postpone the addition of MEDIA_IOC_G_TOPOLOGY
There are a few discussions left with regards to this ioctl:

1) the name of the new structs will contain _v2_ on it?
2) what's the best alternative to avoid compat32 issues?

Due to that, let's postpone the addition of this new ioctl to
the next Kernel version, to give people more time to discuss it.

<title>Description</title>
<para><emphasis role="bold">NOTE:</emphasis> This new ioctl is programmed to be added on Kernel 4.6. Its definition/arguments may change until its final version.</para>
<para>The typical usage of this ioctl is to call it twice.
On the first call, the structure defined at &media-v2-topology; should
be zeroed. At return, if no errors happen, this ioctl will return the
<constant>topology_version</constant> and the total number of entities,
interfaces, pads and links.</para>
<para>Before the second call, the userspace should allocate arrays to
store the graph elements that are desired, putting the pointers to them
at the ptr_entities, ptr_interfaces, ptr_links and/or ptr_pads, keeping
the other values untouched.</para>
<para>If the <constant>topology_version</constant> remains the same, the
ioctl should fill the desired arrays with the media graph elements.</para>

num_interfaces, num_links or num_pads are non-zero and are smaller
