Oh dear, you leave the ranch for 5 minutes to a place without email and
all hell breaks loose.  Didn't anyone think that New Year is a time for
holidays?

So, for a minor niggle, which is trivially sorted, you pull almost the
whole patch leaving the only bit that causes problems for the Nova-S
(for which the patch was intended).  The remnant,
drivers/media/video/cx88/cx88-cards.c line 970, adds wm8775 baseband
audio-in which is horribly distorted without the patch.  So I suggest it
too is removed.

Now, if someone can direct me to a full hardware description for the
PVR-150 and datasheets for the components connected to the wm8775 then
I'll endeavour to provide a solution compatible with both.  If anyone
can loan me a PVR-150 then so much the better, but it's not essential if
the full docs are available.
