media: hdpvr: fix locking and a missing msleep



This driver has three locking issues:

- The wait_event_interruptible() condition calls hdpvr_get_next_buffer(dev)
  which uses a mutex, which is not allowed. Rewrite with list_empty_careful()
  that doesn't need locking.

- In hdpvr_read() the call to hdpvr_stop_streaming() didn't lock io_mutex,
  but it should have since stop_streaming expects that.

- In hdpvr_device_release() io_mutex was locked when calling flush_work(),
  but there it shouldn't take that mutex since the work done by flush_work()
  also wants to lock that mutex.

There are also two other changes (suggested by Keith):

- msecs_to_jiffies(4000); (a NOP) should have been msleep(4000).
- Change v4l2_dbg to v4l2_info to always log if streaming had to be restarted.
