drxk: allow loading firmware synchrousnously
Due to udev-182, the firmware load was changed to be async, as otherwise udev would give up of loading a firmware. Add an option to return to the previous behaviour, async firmware loads cause failures with the tda18271 driver. Antti tested it with the following hardware: Hauppauge WinTV HVR 930C MaxMedia UB425-TC PCTV QuatroStick nano (520e) Tested-by: Antti Palosaari <crope@iki.fi> Cc: stable@kernel.org # for Kernel 3.6 - please note that driver location has changed Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
