Subject: [2.6.20.y PATCH 1/7] dvbdev: fix illegal re-usage of fileoperations struct

Subject: [PATCH] dvbdev: fix illegal re-usage of fileoperations struct

Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> reported an illegal re-usage of
the fileoperations struct if more than one dvb device (e.g. frontend) is
present.

This patch fixes this issue.

It allocates a new fileoperations struct each time a device is
registered and copies the default template fileops.
