I just spent three hours debugging my problem and I have to admit that your
problem looks the same as mine. My system is 32-bit, so this problem doesn't
seem to be 32/64-problem.
The problem is: In the beginning the driver is able to communicate with
cu1216 using I2C. For example, the driver is able to check that the
demodulator is there using cu1216_readreg(). As soon as DMA is started (you
get "mantis start feed & dma" in your kernel log), all i2c reading and
writing fails. Every read returns 0. I have not yet found out why. You can
verify this by adding
/* check if i2c stuff still works */
if ((cu1216_readreg(state, AC_IDENTITY_IND) & 0xf0) != 0x70) {
printk("I2C READING FAILED.\n");
in the beginning of cu1216_set_parameters() (but after *state is acquired,
of course). The same test is in cu1216.c/cu1216_attach() which is always run
before any DMA is initiated. When executed there, it correctly gets value
0x70, but anytime dma is active, all i2c reads return 0.
