Subject: [PATCH] media: v4l2-mem2mem: always call poll_wait() on queues

do_poll()/do_select() seem to set the _qproc member of poll_table to
NULL the first time they are called on a given table, making subsequent
calls of poll_wait() on that table no-ops. This is a problem for mem2mem
which calls poll_wait() on the V4L2 queues' waitqueues only when a
queue-related event is requested, which may not necessarily be the case
during the first poll.

For instance, a stateful decoder is typically only interested in
EPOLLPRI events when it starts, and will switch to listening to both
EPOLLPRI and EPOLLIN after receiving the initial resolution change event
and configuring the CAPTURE queue. However by the time that switch
happens and v4l2_m2m_poll_for_data() is called for the first time,
poll_wait() has become a no-op and the V4L2 queues waitqueues thus
cannot be registered.

Fix this by moving the registration to v4l2_m2m_poll() and do it whether
or not one of the queue-related events are requested.

I seem to be hitting all the polling corner cases recently! ^_^; This
time I was wondering why epoll_wait() never returned after I received
the first resolution change event from the vicodec stateful decoder.
This is why - please take a look!
