This code block, specifically, I would rather not see added into dvb-pll:
+static int dvb_pll_get_num_regs(struct dvb_pll_priv *priv)
+{
+ int num_regs = 4;
+
+ if (strncmp(priv->pll_desc->name, "Thomson dtt7546x", 16) == 0)
+ num_regs = 5;
+
+ return num_regs;
+}
+
tuner-simple provides an infrastructure that allows this tuner to be
added in a more elegant way without the need to add special cases to
otherwise generic code, as done in the above.
I'm sorry, Peter. Can you take a look at tuner-simple and consider
sending a new patch?
