From: Daniel Scheller <d.scheller@xxxxxxx> When the demod driver puts the demod into sleep or shutdown state and it's status is then polled e.g. via "dvb-fe-tool -m", i2c errors are printed to the kernel log. If the last delsys was DVB-T/T2: cxd2841er: i2c wr failed=-5 addr=6c reg=00 len=1 cxd2841er: i2c rd failed=-5 addr=6c reg=26 and if it was DVB-C: cxd2841er: i2c wr failed=-5 addr=6c reg=00 len=1 cxd2841er: i2c rd failed=-5 addr=6c reg=49 This happens when read_status unconditionally calls into the read_signal_strength() function which triggers the read_agc_gain_*() functions, where these registered are polled. This isn't a critical thing since when the demod is active again, no more such errors are logged, however this might make users suspecting defects. Fix this by requiring STATE_ACTIVE_* in priv->state. If it isn't in any active state, additionally set the strength scale to NOT_AVAILABLE.
