Does this patch to fix these problems look ok?

In fact, everything looks correct in my eyes. I'll ask Mauro to pull any
minute from now.

I even have an explaination why the failing attach of the itd1000 was
not errored out: when I did the development I was using a userspace
proprietary driver to validate, for that I needed the demod to be
attached...

Thanks for cleaning up this mess.

Now that that patch is done, here is the rest of the series with dvb-pll
conversions.  There is an additional patch to the flexcop card detecting
code.  The #if defined(CONFIG_...) stuff didn't take into account code
being compiled into the kernel.

Here's the series:

Nice patches. Are those tested with real cards?

In particular, I loved this:

+/* Can we use the specified front-end?  Remember that if we are compiled
+ * into the kernel we can't call code that's in modules.  */
+#define FE_SUPPORTED(fe) (defined(CONFIG_DVB_##fe) || \
+       (defined(CONFIG_DVB_##fe##_MODULE) && defined(MODULE)))

IMO, you should add it on a dvb core header. Then, a cleanup patch would be to
simplify all those frontend tests all over all the dvb drivers code.

Patrick,

I think you have some skystar boards. I'd appreciate if you can review
those patches before applying it.

The only card I use which is using DVB_PLL (now) is the Airstar DVB-T. So we need to take some risks and apply to force users to test :). I will ask some users I know.

However I won't be able to commit nor test anything before 3.5 weeks from now.

regards,
Patrick.
