Hi, this second patch also is not yet in 5.12-rc5 and is still relevant for me. A second option would be to stop using the fallback firmware completely. I think systems using a current kernel can be expected to also have the firmware files with their current names.

we can not know beforehand whether we have to access that firmware file during resume. We just request the caching so we don't run into any problems later Signed-off-by: Lukas Middendorf <kernel@tuxforce.de> --- drivers/media/dvb-frontends/si2168.c | 13 +++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+)
