V4L: pvrusb2: Suppress compiler warning
The pvrusb2 driver needs to call video_devdata() in order to correctly
transform a file pointer into a video_device pointer. Unfortunately
the prototype for this function has been marked V4L1-only and there's
no official substitute that I can find for V4L2. Adding to the
mystery is that the implementation for this function exists whether or
not V4L1 compatibility has been selected. The upshot of all this is
that we get a compilation warning here about a missing prototype but
the code links OK. This fix solves the warning by copying the
prototype into the source file that is using it. Yes this is a hack,
but it's a safe one for 2.6.18 (any alternative would be much more
intrusive). A better solution should be forthcoming for the next
kernel.
