Now that I look closer, seems there's an even more complete patch 
already in linus' tree, commit id:

cd8f894eacf13996d920fdd2aef1afc55156b191

Shoulda just forwarded that along, but I was under the impression that 
area of code had changed significantly in 2.6.28 and the patch was no 
longer applicable. Maybe that was the v4l/dvb hg tree though... So I'd 
just grab that, and add:
