Did it used to work with a previous version? If so, could you please
bisect to see what patch broke it?

I'm not familiar enough with ARM to understand what the above actually means.
I would be expecting, instead, an error with the trace function stack.

Perhaps you need to enable some things at .config to enable it, or to run
./scripts/ksymoops manually to translate the above into something useful.

Btw, most of media devices require a lot of power to work. In order to
use them with Raspberry Pi, you may find troubles, depending on the power 
source you have.

I got a Rpi a few weeks ago, and I was able to run there only one USB
device with has an external power, as the 1A power adapter I have was not
enough to energize the usual usb sticks I tried, when the demod and tuner
are powered on by the driver. That causes device reconnect or even
hangs there.

I heard that using a 2A power adapter would work, but I don't have it
currently (I'm currently trying to get one). I tested also with an USB
hub with its own power supply. I found there two issues:

	- the hub was sending power also to the Rpi, causing problems
there due to the other power adapter;

	- the hub I used seemed to interfere at the USB isoc traffic.

What I'm trying to say is that perhaps this is not a driver issue at all,
but, instead, a problem with em28xx+demod high power consumption and Rpi.

The best way is to test the device first on a x86, to be sure that the
driver is OK there. Then, you need to properly address the power supply
needs for RPi. Only after that, check if are there at em28xx anything
that could be incompatible with arm.
