Hi Andy: Sorry, I was away for the weekend; thanks very much for following up on this.
I took your two patches and applied them to my copy of the head revision on the main branch (that is, http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/, I am assuming that that's what you meant; I didn't build the ~awalls branch, but would be happy to if you'd rather I did), and the tuner works fine now. I watched live TV on the analog input for several hours last night, with no problems. Please let me know if you want me to test anything else... Thank you!
