This is wrong, it supports *read-only* requests.

Also, Documentation/userspace-api/media/mediactl/request-api.rst should mention
read-only requests: I think a new section "Read-Only Requests" explaining the
purpose and use of such requests would be best. It can be inserted just before
the "Example for a Codec Device" at the end.
