Some time ago, Manoel sent us a patch adding more stuff
to the init sequence. However, his patch were also doing
non-related stuff, by changing the init logic without
any good reason. So, it was asked for him to submit a
patch with just the data that has changed, in order to
allow us to better analyze it.
As he didn't what it was requested, I finally found some
time to dig into his init sequence and add it here.
Basically, new stuff is added there. There are a few changes:
1) The removal of the extra (duplicated) logic that puts
the chip into the serial mode;
2) Some Viterbi VBER measurement init data was changed from
0x00 to 0xff for layer A, to match what was done for
layers B and C.
None of those caused any regressions and both make sense
on my eyes.
The other parameters additions actually increased the
tuning quality for some channels. Yet, some channels that
were previously discovered with scan disappered, while
others appeared instead. This were tested in Brasilia,
with an external antena.
At the overall, it is now a little better. So, better to
add these, and then try to figure out a configuration that
would get even better scanning results.

On mb86a20s, some registers have sub-addresses, while others not.
In order to make easier to compare different settings, group them.
No functional changes in this patch.

Now that this field is deprecated, and core generates it for
DVBv3 calls, remove it from the drivers.
It also adds .delsys on the few drivers where this were missed.

Just like set_frontend, use the dvb cache properties for get_frontend.
This is more consistent, as both functions are now symetric. Also,
at the places get_frontend is called, it makes sense to update the
cache.
Most of this patch were generated by this small perl script:
while (<>) { $file .= $_; }
if ($file =~ m/\.get_frontend\s*=\s*([\d\w_]+)/) {
my $get = $1;
$file =~ s/($get)(\s*\([^\,\)]+)\,\s*struct\s+dtv_frontend_properties\s*\*\s*([_\d\w]+)\)\s*\{/\1\2)\n{\n\tstruct dtv_frontend_properties *\3 = &fe->dtv_property_cache;/g;
}
print $file;
Of course, the changes at dvb_frontend.[ch] were made by hand,
as well as the changes on a few other places, where get_frontend()
is called internally inside the driver.
On some places, get_frontend() were just a void function. Those
occurrences were removed, as the DVB core handles such cases.

As all parameters are passed via DVBv5 to the frontends, there's
no need to pass them again via fops. Also, most drivers weren't using
it anyway. So, instead, just pass a parameter to indicate if the
hardware algorithm wants the driver to re-tune or not.

Instead of using dvb_frontend_parameters struct, that were
designed for a subset of the supported standards, use the DVBv5
cache information.
Actually, this driver needs to fill/use the ISDB-T proprieties.
Also, fill the supported delivery systems at dvb_frontend_ops
struct.

Creates a DVBv5 get_frontend call, renaming the DVBv3 one to
get_frontend_legacy(), while not all frontends are converted.
After the conversion for all drivers, get_frontend_legacy()
will be removed.

Passing DVBv3 parameters to set_frontend is not fun, as the
core doesn't have any way to know if the driver is using the
v3 or v5 parameters. So, rename the callback and add a new
one to allow distinguish between a mixed v3/v5 paramenter call
from a pure v5 call.
After having all frontends to use the new way, the legacy
call can be removed.

This is a big patch, yet trivial: now that all tuners use the DVBv5
way to pass parameters (e. g. via fe->dtv_property_cache), the
extra parameter can be removed from set_params() call.
After this change, very few DVBv3 specific stuff are left at the
tuners.

Due to a hard to track bug between tda829x/tda18271/saa7134, tda829x
wants to go to analog mode during DVB initialization, causing some
I2C errors.
The analog failure doesn't cause any harm, as the device were already
properly initialized in analog mode. However, the failure at the digital
mode causes the frontend mb86a20s to not initialize. Fortunately, at
least on my tests, it was possible to detect that the device is a
mb86a20s before the failure.
What happens is that tda8290 is a very bad boy: during DVB setup, it
keeps insisting to call tda18271 analog_set_params, that calls
tune_agc code. The tune_agc code calls saa7134 driver, changing the
value of GPIO 27, switching from digital to analog mode and disabling
the access to mb86a20s, as, on Kworld SBTVD, the same GPIO used
to switch the hardware AGC mode seems to be used to enable the I2C
switch that allows access to the frontend (mb86a20s).
So, a call to analog_set_params ultimately disables the access to
the frontend, and causes a failure at the init frontend logic.
This patch is a workaround for this issue: it simply checks if the
frontend init had any failure. If so, it will init the frontend when
some DTV application will try to set DVB mode.
Even being a hack for Kworld SBTVD to work, and assumning that we could
teach tda8290 to be a good boy, this is actually an improvement at the
frontend driver, as it will be more reliable to initialization failures.

A script replaced err var to rc. Howerver, this script gambled
"error" string, changing it to "rcor". Revert that bad change.

By comparing the traffic between Pixelview (cx23102-based and Kworld
(saa7134-based), the only difference is at register 0xd5. After some
tests, It seems that it is used to change mode between serial and parallel.

This adds the trivial bits to mb86a20s. As the driver won't touch
at the channel/layer parameters, this may not be enough for
receiving all channels, especially ISDB-Tsb, but the driver worked
properly for receiving video channels on my tests.
