Same with Tevii S480 / S482

Upgrade to kernel 3.13.0-29-generic done, no improvement.
The card has been working fine under 12.4 and TvHeadend, / kaffeine

Firmware is existing:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   2285 Mai 29 15:25 dvb-fe-bcm3510-01.fw

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   8192 Mai 29 13:59 dvb-fe-ds3103.fw

Tested also on a second machine, the same results.

tested also:
options ds3000 force_fw_upload=1

in /etc/modprobe.d/tevii.conf

Found this hint from someone else:
Also I tried this card with Debian wheezy + kernel image 3.14.1 from debian unstable - and card works fine, firmware loaded successfully in a second. So I think it's a specific bug in kernel.

Title:
  Tevii S471 DVB-S2 card hangs on firmware upload

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have fresh installed Ubuntu Trusty Tahr (Server) with kernel 3.13.0-29.
  Firmware file dvb-fe-ds3000.fw is putted into /lib/firmware
  On a system cold start I see in syslog:

  Jun  5 16:00:54 MMC kernel: [    9.601460] cx23885 driver version 0.0.3 loaded

  But if I try to scan channels by scan or tvheadend I see this repeated lines:

  Jun  5 16:01:04 MMC kernel: [   20.051633] ds3000_firmware_ondemand: Waiting for firmware upload (dvb-fe-ds3000.fw)...

  Card works under Debian linux kernel image from unstable repo (linux-
  image-3.14.1)
