Because fh2id gets removed in "[PATCH 57/65] media: ivtv: Access v4l2_fh
from file". I can use it in this patch and drop it later, would you
prefer that ?

file_to_channel() gets used in more places in "[PATCH 29/65] media:
allegro: Access v4l2_fh from file", where fh_to_channel() is dropped.
I'd rather keep it in this patch instead of having to modify the
allegro_release() function in patch 29/65.
