I attached a patch which adds a DTV_BANDWIDTH_HZ command. That's all. I 
would like to have the option to pass any bandwidth I want to the 
frontend.

Also this patch includes some more things and questions around ISDB-T and 
ISDB-Tsb:

Sorry for not integrating this into the frontend_cache yet. But I'm really 
out of time (at work and even at home, working on cx24120) and I will not 
be able to supply the DiBcom ISDB-T demod-driver (which would use all 
that) right now.

thanks for all your efforts,
Patrick.
