the datasheet is not available at least to me and i don't know any
more details. the code in question was given to me by the author under
GPLv2 license and that's why i put it in separate file
"tbs_lnb_pwr.c".

also, the cards that use this type of LNB power control, which i
called for short "type 1", have the same device IDs as the one that
don't use it and use "type 0" of LNB power control instead.
