Test Cases for token devres interfaces: (passed)
  - Create, lock, unlock, and destroy sequence.
  - Try lock while it is locked. Returns -EBUSY as expected.
  - Try lock after destroy. Returns -ENODEV as expected.
  - Unlock while it is unlocked. Returns 0 as expected. This is a no-op.
  - Try unlock after destroy. Returns -ENODEV as expected.

Any chance you can add these "test cases" as part of the kernel code so
it lives here for any future changes?

Yes. I am planning to add these test cases to the kernel to serve as regression tests when these interfaces change. I have to add these in a driver framework, i.e I might need to create dummy driver perhaps. I haven't given it much thought on how, but I do plan to add tests.


Special notes for Mauro Chehab:
  - Please evaluate if these token devres interfaces cover all media driver
    use-cases. If not what is needed to cover them.
  - For use-case testing, I generated a string from em28xx device, as this
    is common for all em28xx extensions: (hope this holds true when em28xx
    uses snd-usb-audio
  - Construct string with (dev is struct em28xx *dev)
		format: "tuner:%s-%s-%d"
		with the following:
    	            dev_name(&dev->udev->dev)
                 dev->udev->bus->bus_name
                 dev->tuner_addr
  - I added test code to em28xx_card_setup() to test the interfaces:
    example token from this test code generated with the format above:

What would the driver changes look like to take advantage of these new
functions?


I am working on changes to em28xx driver to create and lock/unlock tuner token when it starts analog/digital video streaming. I should have a patch ready in a day or two.
