I think I2C_HW_B_HDPVR was only being used by a not-yet-merged-upstream patch to the hdpvr driver, which enabled the IR functionality on it. Its not merged, as enabling it seems to like to lock the unit up from time to time, and nobody (myself included) has had time to figure out why. In any case, it should be perfectly fine to nuke that, we need to fix lirc_zilog regardless.
