[pvrusb2] 2.6.16-rc1 test

[Mike Isely]

Hmm.  Swell.  So much for my previous statement.  I think I know what this 
is but I need to do some more digging.  The "owner" field is used for a 
type of a lock which is needed to prevent accidental removal of a module 
from the kernel while something might be processing inside of it.  I had 
heard that some owner fields had been removed, but that implies that there 
has to a substitute means to avoid the remove-while-executing race.  I'll 
look into this - however there probably won't be an answer until Friday 
night at the earliest.
