Here's a possible fix based on a patch by Ben Hutchings and corrections from Andi Huber. Warning: probably full of mistakes (my fault) since I'm not familiar with any of this stuff. Untested. Review and testing would be welcome.
Ben Hutchings (2): [media] cx88: fix locking of sub-driver operations [media] cx88: use a mutex to protect cx8802_devlist
Jonathan Nieder (1): [media] cx88: protect per-device driver list with device lock
