doc_rst: rename the media Sphinx suff to Documentation/media
The name of the subsystem is "media", and not "linux_tv". Also, as we plan to add other stuff there in the future, let's rename also the media uAPI book to media_uapi, to make it clearer. No functional changes. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>

+Synopsis
+--------
+
+.. cpp:function:: int ioctl( int fd, int request = DMX_SET_FILTER, struct dmx_sct_filter_params *params)
+
+
+Arguments
+---------
+
+.. flat-table::
+ :header-rows: 0
+ :stub-columns: 0
+
+
+ - .. row 1
+
+ - int fd
+
+ - File descriptor returned by a previous call to open().
+
+ - .. row 2
+
+ - int request
+
+ - Equals DMX_SET_FILTER for this command.
+
+ - .. row 3
+
+ - struct dmx_sct_filter_params \*params
+
+ - Pointer to structure containing filter parameters.
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This ioctl call sets up a filter according to the filter and mask
+parameters provided. A timeout may be defined stating number of seconds
+to wait for a section to be loaded. A value of 0 means that no timeout
+should be applied. Finally there is a flag field where it is possible to
+state whether a section should be CRC-checked, whether the filter should
+be a ”one-shot” filter, i.e. if the filtering operation should be
+stopped after the first section is received, and whether the filtering
+operation should be started immediately (without waiting for a
+DMX_START ioctl call). If a filter was previously set-up, this filter
+will be canceled, and the receive buffer will be flushed.
+
+
+Return Value
+------------
+
+On success 0 is returned, on error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set
+appropriately. The generic error codes are described at the
+:ref:`Generic Error Codes <gen-errors>` chapter.
