From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@xxxxxxxx> The p54 driver uses request_firmware() twice, once for actual firmware and then another time for an optional user overide on EEPROM, 3826.eeprom. The custom EEPROM is optional but if not present we'll introduce an extra lag of 60 seconds with udev present. Annotate we don't want udev nonsense here to avoid the lag in case its not present.
I guess the fact that EEPROM is optional does not matter much. If doing a second request you could always use request_firmware_direct(), right?
