+ * Mike Isely <isely@pobox.com> - The FWSEND parameter controls the
+ * size of the firmware chunks sent down the I2C bus to the chip.
+ * Previously this had been set to 1024 but unfortunately some I2C
+ * implementations can't transfer data in such big gulps.
+ * Specifically, the pvrusb2 driver has a hard limit of around 60
+ * bytes, due to the encapsulation there of I2C traffic into USB
+ * messages. So we have to significantly reduce this parameter.
