Hi Mauro,

V4L2 FM driver depend upon an underlying TI_ST driver which is the
core transport driver.
Updates to TI-ST driver happen on linux-next tree on kernel.org and
are planned to be released in 2.6.39.

Since your tree @
[http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-2.6.git]
lags behind the linux-next tree, the recent updates to TI-ST driver
are missing on your tree.

Unfortunately these would cause a build failure for the V4L2 driver,
since the APIs have changed on the TI-ST driver.
So, Please suggest on how to proceed to submit V4L2 driver ?

Do I pull in the changes which have gone into linux-next on my clone
of your tree ? So that during a GIT pull changes on linux-next for
TI-ST driver also gets into your tree?

Regards
Manjunatha Halli
