For people who encounter this bug on recent kernels:
dvb_api_wrapper.c:189: error: '__invalid_size_argument_for_IOC' cannot appear in a constant-expression
This is caused by an obscure kernel compile check that is supposed to do macro parameter checking for ioctl constants, but also prevents using these constants in switch statements.
(Basically, it complains that an expression like this is not allowed: case (true ? 1234 : some_var): The glory details are in /usr/include/asm-generic/ioctl.h)
The attached (additional, because I'm lazy) patch works around this.
Cheers,
Udo
