'dvb attach' problem with old saa7134 hardware and new kernels
I have two systems affected by this. They have been working for years
but the cards don't initialise with new kernel-ml-6.5.2-1.el7.elrepo or
6.4.15-100.fc37.

dmesg: DVB: Unable to find symbol tda10046 attach()

It's known, and likely to be fixed soon...

Re: [PATCH 6.5 11/34] modules: only allow symbol_get of
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL modules
