The option to load firmware asynchronously were added due to
a requirement with a few versions of udev. It turns that this was
a bad idea and caused regressions on drxk-based devices.
So, we end by only letting the firmware to be loaded syncronously
everywhere.
So, let's remove the bad code.
This patch partially reverts the changeset 8e30783b0b.

Thare are lots of CamelCase warnings produced by checkpatch.pl.
This weren't fixed at the time the driver got submitted due
to the lack of manpower do to such cleanup.
Now that I have one script that automates this task, cleans
it. That makes the driver almost checkpatch-compliant,
except for 80 column warnings.

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)

Raise the DVB frontends one level up, as the intention is to remove
the drivers/media/dvb directory.
