The "Denkfehler" was indeed at my side: At first, I compiled the kernel with the old firmware. Then I noticed the missing firmware module "CYPRESS_uvd.bin". After an information trip around the internet, I downloaded the missing and the up-to-date firmware modules and put them into place as well as adapted the kernel configuration. Then I just did a new "make" in the kernel directory. But, it seems the make rules don't recognize changed firmware modules. In the end I still saw the described error messages in the dmesg-output. Today, after reading your e-mail I came to this conclusion and recompiled the kernel completely, i.e., beginning with a "make clean". And, voilà, everything now works.
