Johannes,

Resuming from suspend to disk is really hard with em28xx/drx-k. 
Not sure why, but the drx-k doesn't let the firmware to be reloaded
at resume. Once the firmware is loaded, any trial to reload it makes
the device to misfunction.

Also, re-sending the init sequence that it is there at em28xx also
makes it unstable.

I suspect that a certain specific shutdown sequence would be needed
for it to work, but I was unable to reproduce it.

Perhaps the issue is related to either some I2C gateway at the analog
demod (we don't have a driver for it) or some GPIO sequence is needed
to reset it.

So, I'm giving up for it for today. I may give a second trial if I
won't be side-tracked by some other issue.

Regards,
Mauro
