staging: comedi: don't override read/write subdevice if not supported
For comedi devices that support asynchronous commands on some of their subdevices, the comedi core creates extra device files for each of those subdevices of the form "/dev/comedi%i_subd%i". These use the same comedi device as the corresponding "/dev/comedi%i" but override the default "read" and "write" subdevice for the device. Currently it overrides both the read and write subdevice, but it only makes sense to override the "read" subdevice if the subdevice supports "read" commands, and to override the "write" subdevice if the subdevice supports "write" commands. In `comedi_alloc_subdevice_minor()`, only set `info->read_subdevice` non-NULL if the subdevice has the `SDF_CMD_READ` flag set, and only set `info->write_subdevice` non-NULL if the subdevice has the `SDF_CMD_WRITE` flag set. (`comedi_read_subdevice(info)` will use the device's default read subdevice if `info->read_subdevice` is NULL. `comedi_write_subdevice(info)` will use the device's default write subdevice if `info->write_subdevice` is NULL.
