Hi all,

The tuner-core.c source contains this warning since 2.6.24:

tuner_warn("Support for tuners in i2c address range 0x64 thru 0x6f\n");
tuner_warn("will soon be dropped. This message indicates that your\n");
tuner_warn("hardware has a %s tuner at i2c address 0x%02x.\n",
                   t->name, t->i2c->addr);
tuner_warn("To ensure continued support for your device, please\n");
tuner_warn("send a copy of this message, along with full dmesg\n");
tuner_warn("output to v4l-dvb-maintainer@linuxtv.org\n");
tuner_warn("Please use subject line: \"obsolete tuner i2c address.\"\n");
tuner_warn("driver: %s, addr: 0x%02x, type: %d (%s)\n",
                   t->i2c->adapter->name, t->i2c->addr, t->type,
t->name);

Isn't it time to remove these i2c addresses? I don't believe we ever had
a real tuner at such an address.

With the ongoing v4l2_subdev conversion I need to do a bit of cleanup in
tuner-core.c as well, so it would be a good time for me to combine it
(and it gets rid of an ugly cx88 hack in tuner-core.c as well).

Regards,

	Hans
Mike, please let me know if I can remove this!

Thanks,

	Hans
