The DVB part of the docbook has a completely different format than the V4L2 part, as it was written as a separate document. As the V4L2 documentation is on better shape, and its format allows adding more information, let's use it for FE_GET_INFO and gradually update the non-legacy DVB ioctls using the new format.
