[linux-dvb] dvb/cvs (2.4 mdk), modparm dvb_shutdown_timeout weirdness

[Guido Draheim <guidod-2003-@gmx.de>]

I've been compiling DVB cvs for 2.4.21-0.13mdk (mandrake 9.1 kernel).
I am using apps/szap/szap to switch channels on Siemens DVB-S 1.3.

Problem: picture on v4l device freezes a few seconds later
         (using `zapping` v4l application to put it onscreen).

Diagnosis:
- keeping 'szap' running does not make the picture freeze
- using 'make insmod' in DVB/driver does never make the
  v4l picture freeze, even when exiting 'szap'.
- only difference to my modules.conf:
  there is a module switch dvb_shutdown_timeout=0
  while doing `make insmod` in the DVB cvs driver area.
- adding some line into /etc/modules.conf like
     options dvb-core dvb_shutdown_timeout=0
  will ensure correct behavior. After exit from szap,
  the v4l video keeps running.

Some used-counter not gotten right?
