Since commits 7b9eb53e8591 ("media: cx18: Access v4l2_fh from file") 9ba9d11544f9 ("media: ivtv: Access v4l2_fh from file")
All the ioctl handlers access their private data structures from file *
The ivtv and cx18 drivers call the ioctl handlers from their DVB layer without a valid file *, causing invalid memory access.
The issue has been reported by smatch in "[bug report] media: cx18: Access v4l2_fh from file"
Fix this by providing wrappers for the ioctl handlers to be used by the DVB layer that do not require a valid file *.
