[PATCH] v4l: oopsfix for BTTV on badly behaved PCI chipsets
no_overlay bttv parameter implemented to fix OOPS on some PCI chipsets
(like some VIA) with these behaviors:
1) If pci_quicks does identify the chip as having troubles to
handle PCI2PCI transfers, no_overlay defaults to 1. The user may force
it to 0, to reenable (not recommended).
2) For newer chipsets not blacklisted, no_overlay=1 is provided as a
workaround until PCI chipset included on /drivers/pci/quirks.c
