That won't work because the underlying resources are shared between
/dev/videoX and /dev/vbiX device nodes.  Hence if you were to move to
v4l2_fh_is_singular_file(), the video device would get opened, the
stream would get reset, the VBI device would get opened, and that
would cause the analog stream to get enabled/reset *again*.
