The backtrace is a bit of a mess, but what seems to happen is that we're oopsing
on the saawrite(0xffff0000, SAA7146_MC1) in init_saa7146
saawrite does a writel((dat), saa->saa7146_mem+(adr)), and as we've already
dereferenced 'saa' a few lines above, the oops is due to saa7146_mem being NULL
however that should be set up by configure_saa7146, which gets called in stradis_probe()
prior to calling init_saa7146.
*puzzled*.
