V4L/DVB (7708): pvrusb2-dvb: Fix stuck thread on streaming abort
If the device fails to stream, the feed thread will block forever waiting for buffers. But while in this state it was not looking for an exit condition from the driver DVB interface. This caused the thread to jam. Implement a new stop flag (which will be set appropriately) to tell the thread to stop.
