Depends.  Sometimes companies get credited for the work in the patches
or the call for testers (making it obvious that the work was sponsored
by a commercial party).  Other times it silently happens and you have
to study the patches to fully understand the implications on a given
piece of hardware.  Unless you're paying for the work yourself,
figuring out what products other companies are paying to see improved
can be a bit of a challenge.

The linux-dvb and v4l mailing lists are deprecated, and were merged
into the "linux-media" mailing list.  See here for more info:

KernelLabs specializes in such work (http://www.kernellabs.com).  Not
that this should be seen as a solicitation.
