[PATCH v4 1/3] media: v4l2-mem2mem: Add a kref to the v4l2_m2m_dev structure

From: Nicolas Dufresne <nicolas.dufresne at collabora.com>
Adding a reference count to the v4l2_m2m_dev structure allow safely
sharing it across multiple hardware nodes. This can be used to prevent
running jobs concurrently on m2m cores that have some internal resource
sharing.
