Okay, as I promised, I had a first shot at the
dvb kernel_thread to kthread API port, and here
is the result, which is running fine here since
yesterday, including module load/unload and
software suspend (which doesn't work as expected
with or without this patch :), I didn't convert
the dvb_ca_en50221 as I do not have such an
interface, but if the conversion process is fine
with the v4l-dvb maintainers, it should not be
a problem to send a patch for that too ...
best,
Herbert
