media: Documentation: BT.601 is not a bus
BT.601 is not actually a bus specification, leaving parallel bus without a specification to refer to. Fix this. Signed-off-by: Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil-cisco@xs4all.nl>

+Parallel and BT.656
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-`BT.601`_ and `BT.656`_ are the most common parallel busses.
+The parallel and `BT.656`_ buses transport one bit of data on each clock cycle
+per data line. The parallel bus uses synchronisation and other additional
+signals whereas BT.656 embeds synchronisation.
