Thanks for the patch, or - better - pointing this out. While it's
unlikely this will ever be an issue, I'm fine with changing the code
like that, but I'd prefer to change it a bit differently (ie.
DEMOD_STOPPED should be DEMOD_UNUSED, and I'd add defines for max.
tuners and use/compare against them).

I'll send out a different patch that will cover the potential
coverityscan problem throughout the end of the week.

Best regards,
Daniel Scheller
