[PATCH] [fix Bug 4395] modprobe bttv freezes the computer

[Johannes Stezenbach]

Here's a patch that fixes
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4395.

In case there's a 2.6.11.7 before 2.6.12 is released it would
be nice to include this patch there, too.

Patch by Manu Abraham and Gerd Knorr:
Remove redundant bttv_reset_audio() which caused the computer to
freeze with some bt8xx based DVB cards when loading the bttv driver.
