From 6894c070e1f23492239a2e5d6777cb1451620bda Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Matthies Date: Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:08:16 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] [media] tda10071: change firmware download condition Reading firmware status register to detect whether firmware is running or not didn't work 100% reliably. That register was likely set by firmware itself which means it could not contain reasonable values until firmware is up and running. Usually it just worked as some garbage value was returned accidentally but it appears that in some cases returned garbage value was 0x00 which was considered "firmware is up and running" by the driver and firmware loading was skipped leaving device to non-working state. Fix problem by removing unreliable check and let the driver keep count whether firmware is loaded or not.
