cx88: increase BUFFER_TIMEOUT to 2 seconds

From: Marton Balint <cus@fazekas.hu>

When temporarily there is no video signal, sometimes it takes more than 0.5
secs for the cx88 chip to generate a single frame. If a dma timeout occurs
during recording, it confuses the recording application (at least mencoder) and
the recording stops. Since there is already an ifdefed-out 2 second buffer
timeout in the code, re-enabling that seemed the most simple solution.

Priority: normal
