Looking closer, I would agree with the cx22702 fix... however the other two
(mt352 and cx22700) seem to already be 16 bit values (or close), so I'm not
sure whether the fixes for those two are valid or not....


Hi Andrew,

I've just checked these again, and I believe that all three DVB front-ends
return 8-bit values, by nature of the fact that the read_register() functions
return 8-bit values - but in the mt352 and cx22700 they are indeed stored
in 16-bit ints, but they are still only 8-bit.
