Hi Antti,
thank you for reporting this issue.

That same lock debug deadlock is still there (maybe ~4 times I report
it during 2 years). Is that possible to fix easily at all?
Patches are always welcome. ;)
haha, I cannot simply learn every driver I meet some problems...
Hint:
If you report a bug ~4 times in 2 years but never get a reply, it
usually means
a) nobody cares
b) nobody has the resources (time, knowledge) to fix it.
So you either have to live with this issue or to fix it yourself.
OK, as you request me to fix it, I will fix that by making DVB USB v2
driver for these em28xx devices I have added.
It should not be very much work as em28xx protocol is still relatively
easy.
How would that help to get those lockdep false warnings fixed ?
Btw: these warnings should appear for _all_ em28xx extensions (dvb,
input, audio).
I am already looking to silence that v4l2 lockdep report. It is hard to
say how much it is work as I simply don't know even reasons.
I suspect that if I start learning and fixing em28xx driver it will take
week or two as a workload. Writing new dvb-usb driver is only max 2 days
of work and as a bonus you will get some missing features for free:
1) power-management
2) suspend/resume
3) PID filters

Antti
