The 2.6.16 kernel introduces a new mutex type, which the driver tries to 
use.  Some hackery with #defines is being used to keep things compatible 
(basically doing the same thing that the dvb-v4l source tree does).  I'm 
not sure yet what the cause is here.  Can you get a clean build under 
2.6.15?
