Re: [PATCH 1/1] [media] ite-cir: initialize use_demodulator before using it

[Nicolas Iooss <nicolas.iooss_linux@m4x.org>]

Hello,

I sent the following patch (available on
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9325039/) a few weeks ago and got no
feedback even though the bug it fixes seems to still exist in
linux-next. Did I do something wrong, like sending to the wrong maintainers?

Thanks,
Nicolas
