[PATCH] IR: Fix sysfs attributes declaration

[PATCH] IR: Fix sysfs attributes declaration

[Francesco Lavra]

Hi,
This patch fixes the declaration of the sysfs attributes for IR's, which
must be a NULL-terminated array of struct attribute *.
Without this patch, my machine crashes when inserting a DVB card.
I'm using a 2.6.32 kernel.
Regards,
Francesco

I can confirm this problem.

Without this patch (thanks, Francesco!)  I get a kernel stack trace when 
loading the media drivers:

(An older v4l-dvb hg snapshot from December 5th wotks fine without patch.)

I am also using 2.6.32 and have two DVB and two v4l2 cards in my machine.

Greets,
