Something must have changed. I updated kernel and got those messages.
I did not get then before. The vmlinuz.old
points to: boot/vmlinuz-3.14.15
vmlinuz points to: boot/vmlinuz-4.1.0-1-586
(debian testing binary .deb)

It may have been exposed by trying oneshot tuning mode... not sure...
I had to try that 'coz I only got about 50% success on any tuning attempt on
this card
(has always been like that).
got rid of that, it tunes reliably now if I set INVERSION to 0.
and retry a few times instead of uning once, then polling for LOCK
(which often won't happen).
It's entirely possible the bug was in there for a while.

They explicitly set the CAN_INVERSION_AUTO flag in the FE_GET_INFO ioctl,
then fail -EINVAL when you try to tune with INVERSION_AUTO.
At least that's where the error message comes from.
