Since:
1) FW_LOADER is defined as:
config FW_LOADER
tristate "Userspace firmware loading support"
depends on HOTPLUG
2) several V4L/DVB driver just selects it;
3) select is not smart enough to auto-select HOTPLUG, if select FW_LOADER.
So, All drivers that select FW_LOADER should also depend on HOTPLUG.
An easier solution (for the end-user perspective) would be to "select HOTPLUG".
However, live is not simple. This would cause recursive dependency issues like
this one:
drivers/usb/Kconfig:62:error: found recursive dependency: USB -> USB_OHCI_HCD
-> I2C -> MEDIA_TUNER -> MEDIA_TUNER_XC2028 -> HOTPLUG -> PCCARD -> PCMCIA ->
USB_ARCH_HAS_HCD -> MOUSE_APPLETOUCH -> USB

The cx25840 module requires external firmware in order to function,
so it must select FW_LOADER, but saa7115 and saa7129 do not require it.
This patch creates VIDEO_CX25840, and alters VIDEO_DECODER to select it.
