I'd guess that this is EAGAIN coming from usb_hcd_map_urb_for_dma() as the 
DVB driver is trying to perform on-stack DMA.

Not really knowing which driver exactly you're using, I quickly skimmed 
through DVB sources, and it turns out this indeed seems to be rather 
common antipattern, and it should be fixed nevertheless. See

Adding relevant CCs.
