dvb_pll_release() frees  fe->tuner_priv, and priv->nr is dvb_pll_devcount, but, decrementing  count will only tell array has a free slot, and now if that free slot needs to be used it will have to either maintain free index list to be consumed next or convert array id to a list.

Ok, I will remove the module parameters and send a patch.
