    V4L/DVB (7013): bw-qcam: add module parameter 'force_init' to skip polite 
auto-detection prior to direct initialization
    
    Setting force_init=1 bypasses the friendly auto-detection by polling the
    status register, and instead attempts to initialize the qcam directly.  Not
    friendly to other parallel devices, but much more reliable than the
    auto-detection.
