There are three patches that are meant to fix the bugs with radio. On the tests
I did here, they worked, but the Bongani still points that the fixes didn't
solve for him.

On the tests I did here, the three patches seemed to work [1]. Maybe you could
test with those patches and post us some results.

There are three patches meant to fix several issues caused by the conversion:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mchehab/v4l-dvb.git;a=commitdiff;h=055a6282c...
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mchehab/v4l-dvb.git;a=commitdiff;h=6e07ff782...

Could you test please and give us some feedback?

[1] Yet, I've discovered recently that the hardware I use for testing PCI
devices is broken. Probably, my motherboard chipset is damaged, since I'm
getting intermittent bugs on several parts of the machine - even with stable
kernels - so my tests with bttv aren't conclusive.

Cheers,
Mauro
