drxk: allow loading firmware synchrousnously
Due to udev-182, the firmware load was changed to be async, as
otherwise udev would give up of loading a firmware.
Add an option to return to the previous behaviour, async firmware
loads cause failures with the tda18271 driver.
Antti tested it with the following hardware:
Hauppauge WinTV HVR 930C
MaxMedia UB425-TC
PCTV QuatroStick nano (520e)
Tested-by: Antti Palosaari <crope@iki.fi>
Cc: stable@kernel.org # for Kernel 3.6 - please note that driver location has changed
