It did.

Neither of those are related to this issue.

Try this patch:

diff --git a/drivers/media/pci/cx25821/cx25821-core.c b/drivers/media/pci/cx25821/cx25821-core.c
index b762c5b..8f8d0e0 100644
--- a/drivers/media/pci/cx25821/cx25821-core.c
+++ b/drivers/media/pci/cx25821/cx25821-core.c
@@ -1208,7 +1208,6 @@ void cx25821_free_buffer(struct videobuf_queue *q, struct cx25821_buffer *buf)
 	struct videobuf_dmabuf *dma = videobuf_to_dma(&buf->vb);
 
 	BUG_ON(in_interrupt());
-	videobuf_waiton(q, &buf->vb, 0, 0);
 	videobuf_dma_unmap(q->dev, dma);
 	videobuf_dma_free(dma);
 	btcx_riscmem_free(to_pci_dev(q->dev), &buf->risc);

I don't think the waiton is really needed for this driver.

What really should happen is that videobuf is replaced by videobuf2 in this
driver, but that's a fair amount of work.
