The CinergyT2 driver currently supplies the total 'unc' (uncorrected
block errors) rather than the difference since the last query. E.g:
root@MythTv:/usr/src/DVB/apps/szap # ./tzap -a 1 "TMF"
using '/dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter1/demux0'
tuning to 842000000 Hz

Note the constantly rising 'unc' value. The following patch to
cinergyt2.c corrects this output:
