Hi!

I tried downloading a new firmware via

       case SI_BOGUS:
-               dev_info(&client->dev, "Bogus chip version, trying
with no firmware\n");
-               fw_name = NULL;
+               dev_info(&client->dev, "Bogus chip version, trying
with new firmware\n");
+               fw_name = SI2157_A30_FIRMWARE;
                break;

which I downloaded from

+               //
https://github.com/CoreELEC/dvb-firmware/blob/master/firmware/dvb-tuner-si2157-a30-01.fw

resulting in

[  209.312086] si2168 1-0067: downloading firmware from file
'dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw'
[  211.535097] si2168 1-0067: firmware version: B 4.0.25
[  211.554938] si2157 2-0063: Bogus chip version, trying with new firmware

[  215.760756] si2157 2-0063: firmware version: \xff.\xff.255

. So even with a new firmware the queried numbers are bogus.
