[media] DocBook: Remove kdapi.xml
Now that the Demux kABI is documented at device-drivers.xml, remove it from the API docbook. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@osg.samsung.com>

-<section id="demux_api">
-<title>Demux API</title>
-<para>The demux API should be implemented for each demux in the system. It is used to select
-the TS source of a demux and to manage the demux resources. When the demux
-client allocates a resource via the demux API, it receives a pointer to the API of that
-resource.
-</para>
-<para>Each demux receives its TS input from a DVB front-end or from memory, as set via the
-demux API. In a system with more than one front-end, the API can be used to select one of
-the DVB front-ends as a TS source for a demux, unless this is fixed in the HW platform. The
-demux API only controls front-ends regarding their connections with demuxes; the APIs
-used to set the other front-end parameters, such as tuning, are not defined in this
-document.
-</para>
-<para>The functions that implement the abstract interface demux should be defined static or
-module private and registered to the Demux Directory for external access. It is not necessary
-to implement every function in the demux_t struct, however (for example, a demux interface
-might support Section filtering, but not TS or PES filtering). The API client is expected to
-check the value of any function pointer before calling the function: the value of NULL means
-&#8220;function not available&#8221;.
-</para>
-<para>Whenever the functions of the demux API modify shared data, the possibilities of lost
-update and race condition problems should be addressed, e.g. by protecting parts of code with
-mutexes. This is especially important on multi-processor hosts.
-</para>
-<para>Note that functions called from a bottom half context must not sleep, at least in the 2.2.x
-kernels. Even a simple memory allocation can result in a kernel thread being put to sleep if
-swapping is needed. For example, the Linux kernel calls the functions of a network device
-interface from a bottom half context. Thus, if a demux API function is called from network
-device code, the function must not sleep.
-</para>
-
-</section>
-<section id="demux_callback_api">
-<title>Demux Callback API</title>
-<para>This kernel-space API comprises the callback functions that deliver filtered data to the
-demux client. Unlike the other APIs, these API functions are provided by the client and called
-from the demux code.
-</para>
-<para>The function pointers of this abstract interface are not packed into a structure as in the
-other demux APIs, because the callback functions are registered and used independent
-of each other. As an example, it is possible for the API client to provide several
-callback functions for receiving TS packets and no callbacks for PES packets or
-sections.
-</para>
-<para>The functions that implement the callback API need not be re-entrant: when a demux
-driver calls one of these functions, the driver is not allowed to call the function again before
-the original call returns. If a callback is triggered by a hardware interrupt, it is recommended
-to use the Linux &#8220;bottom half&#8221; mechanism or start a tasklet instead of making the callback
-function call directly from a hardware interrupt.

- party is slow in processing the callback, it is possible that the circular buffer
- eventually fills up. If this happens, the demux driver should discard any TS

-<para>This function, provided by the client of the demux API, is called from the
- demux code. The function is only called when filtering of sections has been
- enabled using the function start_filtering() of the section feed API. When the
- demux driver has received a complete section that matches at least one section
- filter, the client is notified via this callback function. Normally this function is
- called for each received section; however, it is also possible to deliver multiple
- sections with one callback, for example when the system load is high. If an
- error occurs while receiving a section, this function should be called with
- the corresponding error type set in the success field, whether or not there is
- data to deliver. The Section Feed implementation should maintain a circular
- buffer for received sections. However, this is not necessary if the Section Feed
- API is implemented as a client of the TS Feed API, because the TS Feed
- implementation then buffers the received data. The size of the circular buffer
- can be configured using the set() function in the Section Feed API. If there
- is no room in the circular buffer when a new section is received, the section
- must be discarded. If this happens, the value of the success parameter should
- be DMX_OVERRUN_ERROR on the next callback.</para>
