Booting with 'debug loglevel=8' as kernel parameters I still get no errors or
warnings anywhere.

I'm out of ideas and I don't have any other PCIe tuner card to try.

It is looking more and more as a cx23885 (the module the card uses) issue.
It is really odd since I you get some data, but just like if there was very
poor reception, more noise than signal.

If you can think of some other way to debug this, I'll try it.
