Mauro,
and these too for 3.3. Sorry about mistakes.

In fact, those 3 patches seemed to be good for 3.2:

576b849 [media] mxl5007t: fix reg read
d7d89dc [media] tda18218: fix 6 MHz default IF frequency
ff83bd8 [media] af9015: limit I2C access to keep FW happy

So, I've backported d7d89dc to 3.2, and applied there. the others,
I've added for 3.3.

You could put mxl5007t and tda18218. But as I changed tda18218 to support .get_if_frequency() just before that fix and it touches same code lines, it will not apply unless you do some hand editing or apply tda18218 get_if_frequency() patch too.

DO *NOT* push af9015 I2C patch to the 3.2. I see there could be potential problems if there is heavy demodulator I2C traffic since it forces to wait some I2C related tasks. I suspect that could lead bad situation when there is more traffic we can handle due to I2C access waiting coming from patch.

I have optimized af9013 I2C load, reduced it rather much switching multibyte I2C where possible and running statistic polls using timers in backround. Now it returns all statistics from cache and not make any statistics queries directly when userspace app is asking.

After my af9013 optimizations are ready those could be put to master, which will happen likely 3.3 schedule. It is absolutely too risky put that single patch to 3.2.


regards
Antti
