PAGE_ALIGN(): correctly handle 64-bit values on 32-bit architectures
On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit
boundary. For example:
u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size);
always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB.
The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for
example):
#define PAGE_SHIFT 12
#define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT)
#define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1))
...
#define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK)
The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with
PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary.
Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses
typeof(addr) for the mask.
Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in
include/linux/mm.h.

Add -include linux/version.h to the cflags. Now code can have backward
compatibility test without including compat.h first.
Linux headers included from compat.h are removed, so that code will get
the same headers when compiling in v4l-dvb as it does in the kernel.
Many drivers have compat.h moved to the end of their include list, as
this lets compat.h do things it can't do at the beginning. Such as test
of something is defined to include compat code, or to put a wrapper
around a function without changing the function's name.

The correct mutex header to grab is linux/mutex.h, and while
asm/mutex.h seems to work for x86 architecture, it has been reported
not to work for amd64 architecture. So let's just do this right.

The PVR USB2 hardware seems to like emitting some garbage data before
real stream data appears. This problem has been present all along,
but with the older 29xxx model series it was benign because the
garbage data in question didn't seem to bother mpeg2 players. But
with the 24xxx model series, the garbage data includes what looks like
a corrupted mpeg2 packet, which kills mythtv and ffmpeg. This fix
causes incoming stream data to be discarded until valid mpeg2 data is
seen.
