For those who don't get the daily 'bot mail on the v4l-dvb-maintainer
list, Hans Verkuil's v4l-dvb build 'bot runs sparse builds daily for all
of v4l-dvb land:

http://linuxtv.org/pipermail/v4l-dvb-maintainer/2008-November/008595.html

Although developers won't see waring/error outputs from those runs until
after their changes are merged in the main v4l-dvb repo.

The latest kernel this automatic sparse build compiles is currently
2.26.28-rc4. I've used it to monitor the cx18 driver for sparse build
errors so I could address them - it's quite convenient.

Regards,
Andy
