Statistics polling can not be done by lmedm04 driver's implementation of

So any polling must be a config option for this driver.

Ummm... I presume a runtime config option is okay.

Yes, also, the workqueue appears not to be initialized when using the dvb attached method.


Also, does that mean that the lmedm04 driver can't be made compatible with the
DVBv5 API?

No, the driver will have to implement its own version. It doesn't need a polling thread it simply gets it directly from its interrupt urb buffer.
