Hm, according to

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=115843

sys_close should not be used, and therefore the RH kernel maintainer
patched the kernel to disallow its usage ...

So either I remove once again a glorious RH patch and you can use the
ATrpms kernels, or there is a fix by the ivtv project for this (Cced).

I thought RH promised to follow upstream as close as possible ...
