Add a bunch of cycle_kernel_lock() calls
...
All of the open() functions which don't need the BKL on their face may
still depend on its acquisition to serialize opens against driver
initialization. So make those functions acquire then release the BKL to be
on the safe side.

videodev: BKL pushdown
...
Put explicit lock_kernel() calls into videodev_open(). That function
itself seems OK, but one never knows about all the open() functions
provided by underlying video drivers.
