[media] DocBook: document when to return ENODATA
ENODATA should be returned if the API used for getting, changing, querying or enumerating the current video timings is not supported by the current input or output. This was decided during the 2012 Media Workshop. Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hans.verkuil@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
