Mauro:

I had also posted up two high priority pvrusb2 patches that should 
really be cherry-picked for 2.6.32.  You've already pulled them into 
v4l/dvb and I did mark them as high priority at the time.

These patches enable use of FX2 microcontroller firmware that is 16KB in 
size.  Hauppauge is no longer shipping 8KB firmware for HVR-1950 and 
HVR-1900 and without these changes then those devices won't work AT ALL 
in kernel 2.6.32.

You can find these within the v4l-dvb Mercurial repository here:

Changeset 13495:87c3853fe2b3 
Subject: pvrusb2: Support 16KB FX2 firmware
http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/rev/87c3853fe2b3

Changeset 13500:d4c418d4b25c
Subject: pvrusb2: Fix lingering 16KB FX2 Firmware issues
http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/rev/d4c418d4b25c

I do not believe these patches have any ordering dependencies with other 
patches, though between the two the second one technically should come 
after the first.

Thanks,

  -Mike
