+/* Note that the cx25840 driver requires that the bridge driver calls the
+ v4l2_subdev's init operation in order to load the driver's firmware.
+ Without this the audio standard detection will fail and you will
+ only get mono.
+
+ Since loading the firmware is often problematic when the driver is
+ compiled into the kernel I recommend postponing calling this function
+ until the first open of the video device. Another reason for
+ postponing it is that loading this firmware takes a long time (seconds)
+ due to the slow i2c bus speed. So it will speed up the boot process if
+ you can avoid loading the fw as long as the video device isn't used. */
