I had to remove it from my queue, as the patch broke compilation:

	http://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git?a=commit;h=350df81ebaccc651fa4dfad27738db958e067ded

What's the sense of adding a patch that breaks a driver?

Even assuming that you would later send a patch fixing it, there are still some problems:

1) A latter patch will break git bisect;
2) A broken driver means that I can't test anymore if there are any other problems on other
   drivers.

So, please test your patches against breakages, before sending them to me.

Thanks,
Mauro
