Subject: [RFT PATCH v3 6/6] uvcvideo: Move decode processing to process context

Newer high definition cameras, and cameras with multiple lenses such as
the range of stereo-vision cameras now available have ever increasing
data rates.

The inclusion of a variable length packet header in URB packets mean
that we must memcpy the frame data out to our destination 'manually'.
This can result in data rates of up to 2 gigabits per second being
processed.

To improve efficiency, and maximise throughput, handle the URB decode
processing through a work queue to move it from interrupt context, and
allow multiple processors to work on URBs in parallel.

Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham@...asonboard.com>

v2:
 - Lock full critical section of usb_submit_urb()

v3:
 - Fix race on submitting uvc_video_decode_data_work() to work queue.
 - Rename uvc_decode_op -> uvc_copy_op (Generic to encode/decode)
 - Rename decodes -> copy_operations
 - Don't queue work if there is no async task
 - obtain copy op structure directly in uvc_video_decode_data()
 - uvc_video_decode_data_work() -> uvc_video_copy_data_work()
