The em28xx-dvb driver was disabled for old kernels due to lack of support
for gpio_request_one() required by LNA control in the PCTV290e driver.
Instead, this patch introduces a tiny backport patch that disables LNA
control for the PCTV290e USB stick.
The PCTV290e works fine with LNA disabled, and all the other em28xx-dvb
devices can be used again with old kernels.
