Hi there!
I played around with some new (not supported) card based on saa7134
(Avermedia dvb-s pro A700).
This lead to suspend crashing when saa7134 module was loaded.
Reason is: saa7134_suspend unconditionally calls saa7134_ir_stop:
void saa7134_ir_stop(struct saa7134_dev *dev)
{
if (dev->remote->polling)
del_timer_sync(&dev->remote->timer);
}
So this must fail if dev->remote is NULL. cx88 driver seems to have the same
layout, but this one already has the NULL-check implemented.
This patch now checks dev->remote before calling saa7134_ir_stop.

saa7134: fix NULL dereference at suspend time for cards without IR receiver
Calling saa7134_ir_stop at suspend is no good idea
for saa7134 cards without remote control.
