I had this issue as well.  Turning off vbi in mythtv (it's in the
general settings of mythtv-setup) didn't fix it.  What did fix it for me
was setting vbi to use PIO mode.  This is controlled in ivtv-streams.c.
Look for a section that looks like this (~ line 978):
        {       /* IVTV_ENC_STREAM_TYPE_VBI */
                "encoder VBI",
                VFL_TYPE_VBI, 0,
                PCI_DMA_FROMDEVICE, 1, V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VBI_CAPTURE,
                &ivtv_v4l2_enc_fops
        }
Note the 1 in there after PCI_DMA_FROMDEVICE.  1 is PIO, 0 is DMA.
Compile that and give it a try.  I don't think VBI is a large enough
stream to affect your CPU, so it shouldn't have a noticeable effect
using PIO, and that will probably be offset by not having to write
hundreds of lines to kmsg.
