Testing on my other machine (already on f32) did not show the above messages.
However, being a 2009 vintage, makes the hware less sophisticated, and maybe the
newer hware
is too smart for its own good?
10+ years is enough to find and fix all the bugs, especially if you were lucky enough to
catch
the first use of a chip that became popular. OTOH, if you happen to catch the last
machine
that used a problematic chipset, new kernels may not even have the drivers. Also, if
you
have a problem running linux on older hardware, there will be discussions of the issue.
A
search for the problem with the make and model of the PC and USB ID of the prime suspect
often provides useful information and may tell you which kernel version has the fix.
Maybe I am misreading this response, but let me clarify:
The problem happened on a new machine (a Gigabyte Z390 board) running f30(*1).
The old (2009 vintage) machine runs f32 and is where I tested, not showing the problem.

> I suggest upgrading the system because there is likely a kernel fix for the
initial trigger that caused the whole problem. And possibly a dvb fix as well to avoid
the oops. I second the suggestion of testing with a live boot, but if you're going to
upgrade anyway, might as well just do that.
Agreed, my sentiment as well.
Still, as this is repeatable, I wonder if running a debug kernel (kernel-debug) will
reveal more?
Google may tell you someone else has already done the heavy lifting, and which kernel has
the
fix.
Naturally, and I searched and did not find a relevant report.
cheers
(*1) soon to be upgraded to f32.
