Mauro Carvalho Chehab 54f38fcae5 media: docs: move uAPI book to userspace-api/media
Since 2017, there is an space reserved for userspace API,
created by changeset 1d596dee38 ("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.

Description
-----------
This ioctl is obsolete. Do not use in new drivers. For V4L2 decoders
this ioctl has been replaced by the
:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_DECODER_CMD <VIDIOC_DECODER_CMD>` ioctl.
This ioctl tries a decoder command. The ``video_command`` struct is a
subset of the ``v4l2_decoder_cmd`` struct, so refer to the
:ref:`VIDIOC_TRY_DECODER_CMD <VIDIOC_DECODER_CMD>` documentation
for more information.
Return Value
------------
On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
