V4L/DVB (9624): CVE-2008-5033: fix OOPS on tvaudio when controlling bass/treble

This bug were supposed to be fixed by 5ba2f67afb02c5302b2898949ed6fc3b3d37dcf1,
where a call to NULL happens.

Not all tvaudio chips allow controlling bass/treble. So, the driver
has a table with a flag to indicate if the chip does support it.

Unfortunately, the handling of this logic were broken for a very long
time (probably since the first module version). Due to that, an OOPS
were generated for devices that don't support bass/treble.

This were the resulting OOPS message before the patch, with debug messages
enabled:
