[pvrusb2] Fedora 14 pvrusb2 kernel beware

[Mike Isely]

Ken obviously knows this already, but for others here who have been 
watching this issue on this mailing list, it appears that Jarod Wilson 
has traced to a regression in the tda8290 driver.  The entire trail is 
documented in the bugzilla entry referenced in the post to mythtv-users, 
copied below.  I've been saying that there's been thrashing going on in 
the tuner driver(s) that the pvrusb2 driver relies on when operating 
HVR-1950 / HVR-1900 devices.  Well this appears to be another example.  
Thanks go to Jarod Wilson for tracking this one down.

  -Mike
