Other people algo get oops with disable_ir=1:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/20/122

Does the following patch fix things?

---

saa7134: Fix oops with disable_ir=1

When disable_ir=1 parameter is used, or when saa7134_input_init1()
fails for any other reason, dev->remote will remain NULL, and the
driver will oops in saa7134_hwinit2(). Therefore dev->remote must be
checked before dereferencing.
