I think that this is a sort of race issue: as you're taking more time at anysee,
it is more likely to receive the break while stopping the stream.

After thinking a little about it, I think that the best thing to do here is to 
retry automatically, like the enclosed patch.

The patch doesn't take into account the device mode. If it were opened
in non-block mode, the right behaviour would likely to return -EAGAIN,
and let userspace to retry it.

[PATCH] dvb-usb: Don't abort stop on -EAGAIN/-EINTR

Note: this patch is not complete. if the DVB demux device is opened on
block mode, it should instead be returning -EAGAIN.
