Ah, the problem is here (drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/af9015.c):

static struct tda18271_config af9015_tda18271_config = {
	.gate = TDA18271_GATE_DIGITAL,
	.small_i2c = 1,
};

small_i2c is an enum, currently defined as:

enum tda18271_small_i2c {
        TDA18271_39_BYTE_CHUNK_INIT = 0,
	TDA18271_16_BYTE_CHUNK_INIT = 16,
	TDA18271_08_BYTE_CHUNK_INIT = 8,
	TDA18271_03_BYTE_CHUNK_INIT = 3,
};

The value is just a magic number, but having it associated with the max
I2C size makes more sense than a random value.

The value, before the patch was:

enum tda18271_small_i2c {
        TDA18271_39_BYTE_CHUNK_INIT = 0,
	TDA18271_16_BYTE_CHUNK_INIT = 1,
	TDA18271_08_BYTE_CHUNK_INIT = 2,
};

So, it seems that the max I2C size for af9015 is 16 bytes. The proper init
should be:

	.small_i2c = TDA18271_16_BYTE_CHUNK_INIT;

Please check if the enclosed patch fixes the issue.

Thanks,
Mauro

[media] af9015: Properly initialize tda18271.small_i2c

As reported by Jiri, a regression at mm series is happening on af9015:

tda18271 18-00c0: creating new instance
TDA18271HD/C2 detected @ 18-00c0
af9015: command failed:1
tda18271_write_regs: [18-00c0|M] ERROR: idx = 0x0, len = 39,
i2c_transfer returned: -1
af9015: command failed:1

The cause is that tda18271.small_i2c is an enum. Drivers should use the value
alias, instead of its number, as the "magic" number may change anytime.
