Fine with me -- I'm glad the v4l-dvb development repositories hosted on both linuxtv.org and kernellabs.com are backwards compatible with recent kernels... :-)
I think all the crucial fixes (except for the pvrusb2 16k firmware patch) are all merged into 2.6.31.y as of now... So, now we can focus on new driver support for 2.6.32 :-)
