Patch is not kernel dependent. It was done against current 
v4l-dvb-master found from http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/ . Just download 
v4l-dvb-master, patch it, compile and install.

What kind of situations it hangs? Is your signal weak => errors in picture?

Oh, takes very long. Weak signal? AF9015 demodulator seems to be rather 
slow to lock but over ten seconds is far away I can imagine. I have one 
idea to try get faster lock, but haven't tested & looked it more.

> how can i extract the diff between kernels for extract a patch?
If you use Mercurial, as v4l-dvb-project uses, it can be taken simply by 
  entering command hg diff inside of the tree downloaded from 
linuxtv.org. Diffing against vanilla kernel is not so easy, but is there 
really need?

Everything for there one looks OK.

hmm, I should put error writings to see why this happens.

Does it always load driver two times? It should go warm after firmware 
is downloaded. After that it should not do reconnect nor boot. Does it 
print every time, when plugging stick, that it founds stick in warm 
state two times? Looks like it is reconnecting stick in usb-bus after 
firmware download. I have commented out this reconnecting stuff from 
firmware download because it was not needed and that's why it is very 
strange to see it now...
