My box is fine > with my (more simple) alternative, but your call. Yes, I noticed the bug earlier today, while testing a DVB device. As this affects 2 stable releases plus the upcoming Kernel 4.6, I decided to just revert it for now, while we don't solve the issue. Your patch looks good. So, eventually it will be merged on a new version of this patch, after we test it properly. Thanks! Mauro
