This patch fixes several kernel oops, when unplugging device while it is in
use:
Basically the patch delays freeing of the internal variables in
si470x_usb_driver_disconnect, until the the last user closed the device in
si470x_fops_release. This was implemented a while ago with the help of Oliver
Neukum.
I tested the patch five times (unplugging while in use) without oops coming
from the radio-si470x driver anymore. A remaining oops was coming from the
usbaudio driver, but this is someone else task. Hopefully this fixed all
unplugging issues.

This patch combines all the finished discussions and its resulting patches from
the mailing list.
The version 1.0.6 is mainly influenced by Oliver Neukum. He found a lot of
small issues, that are fixed with this patch now. For me the most interesting
thing is, that it's now safer to use it on other architectures.
The history for version 1.0.6 is:
- fixed coverity checker warnings in *_usb_driver_disconnect
- probe()/open() race by correct ordering in probe()
- DMA coherency rules by separate allocation of all buffers
- use of endianness macros
- abuse of spinlock, replaced by mutex
- racy handling of timer in disconnect, replaced by delayed_work
- racy interruptible_sleep_on(), replaced with wait_event_interruptible()
- handle signals in read()
The driver is tested with all Debian/testing radio programs and rdsd. The patch
is tested against checkpatch.pl v1.12.

These two lines should indeed better be inside the if statement.

I updated the radio-si470x driver another time. Here are the commented history entries:
- number of seek_retries changed to tune_timeout
The last versions checked for the end of frequency tuning by polling a si470x register.
Therefore polling depended on the usb utilization.
This was changed to have a constant timeout now.
- fixed problem with incomplete tune operations by own buffers
The last version used a shared buffer to assembly the USB HID reports.
It sometimes happened, that multiple functions were modifing this buffer simultanuously.
When sending such reports, the hardware returned USB stalls (-EPIPE).
Now buffers of the correct size (smaller than before) are allocated as local variables.
- optimization of variables
The size of some variables has been reduced to allow the compiler to generate more optimized code.
- improved error logging
At some important location, error checking was improved.
Especially the usb transfers to access si470x registers and the tuning functions were modified.

- code reordered to avoid function prototypes
- switch/case defaults are now more user-friendly
- unified comment style
- applied all checkpatch.pl v1.12 suggestions
except the warning about the too long lines with bit comments
- renamed FMRADIO to RADIO to cut line length (checkpatch.pl)

this patch adds a new driver for the Silicon Labs Si470x FM Radio Receiver. It
should also work for the identical ADS/Tech FM Radio Receiver (formerly
Instant FM Music) as soon as I find out the USB Vendor and Product ID.
The driver is inspired by several other USB and radio drivers, but mainly from
the D-Link DSB-R100 USB radio (dsbr100.c).
The USB stick currently has an Si4701 FM RDS radio receiver. But the other
Si470x devices are pin and register compatible, so that in the future the
driver can easily be patched to support these too. Therefore I named the
driver radio-si470x and the configuration option usb-si470x.
The driver itself just provides the control function over the radio. For
getting audio back, the device support the USB audio class, which is
implemented in the already existing driver.
I tested the driver in the last days, until it now satisfies all my
functionality and robustness requirements. The application I used for testing
was kradio.
