"fusion" isn't the right word.  It should be "fuse" or even better
"merge".  Same in the subject.

Not related to your patch but if load_codec() fails, the probe function
still calls zoran_setup_videocodec() on the failed codec.  It might be
better to set the codec to zero?

		result = load_codec(zr, zr->card.video_codec);
		if (result < 0) {
			pci_err(pdev, "failed to load codec %s: %d\n", codec_name, result);
			zr->card.video_codec = 0;
		}
