[mythtv-users] Kernel patch for DVB USB devices, which crash Linux, if they are removed

Live TV and recording worked perfectly with my new Hauppauge WinTV
soloHD DVB (em28xx* Kernel modules) device.

But I had the problem, that the Linux Kernel often crashed, if removed
the DVB device. Closing MythTV backend first did not help.

I reported the bug and wrote a patch, which seems for work-around or fix
the problem. If you have similar problems, please test the patch. Until
now the bug is not processed by the DVB Kernel subsystem maintainer.
