Hi, Mauro!

Actually, I did not test it, because I did not have the hardware.
But, in the other places of the code, the same if cases are used.

Here are a couple examples:

  static int stv090x_dvbs_track_crl(struct stv090x_state *state)
  {
          if (state->internal->dev_ver >= 0x30) {
                  ...
	  } else {
	          ...
	  }

	  ...
  }

  static u32 stv090x_srate_srch_coarse(struct stv090x_state *state)
  {
	...

	if (state->internal->dev_ver >= 0x30) {
                ...
	} else if (state->internal->dev_ver >= 0x20) {
	        ...
	}

	...
  }
