Hi.

The very first version of omapdrm also had integration for PVR: "A
simple plugin mechanism is provided to allow integration with external
kernel modules (*cough* PVR)" (https://lwn.net/Articles/458137/).

This plugin mechanism was not accepted/merged into mainline. But maybe
someone could revive it as non-upstreamable Letux extension...
