Subject: [PATCH v2] media: v4l2-device.h: Explicitly compare grpmask to zero in v4l2_device_mask_call_all

When building with Clang + -Wtautological-constant-compare, several of
the ivtv drivers warn along the lines of:

 drivers/media/pci/cx18/cx18-driver.c:1005:21: warning: converting the
 result of '<<' to a boolean always evaluates to true
 [-Wtautological-constant-compare]
                         cx18_call_hw(cx, CX18_HW_GPIO_RESET_CTRL,
                                         ^
 drivers/media/pci/cx18/cx18-cards.h:18:37: note: expanded from macro
 'CX18_HW_GPIO_RESET_CTRL'
 #define CX18_HW_GPIO_RESET_CTRL         (1 << 6)
                                           ^
 1 warning generated.

This is because the shift operation is implicitly converted to a boolean
in v4l2_device_mask_call_all before being negated. This can be solved by
just comparing the mask result to 0 explicitly so that there is no
boolean conversion.
