From: David Fries <David@xxxxxxxxx> dvb_register calls videobuf_dvb_register_bus, but if that returns a failure the module will be unloaded without clearing the value of core->gate_ctrl which will cause an oops in macros called from video_open in cx88-video.c Signed-off-by: David Fries <David@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Istvan Varga <istvan_v@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@xxxxxxxxx> --- This is with 3.2.0-rc5+, and it only fixes the oops, it doesn't resolve why cx88-dvb failed to work.
