Sure. The better would be to even remove the hauppauge_hvr930c_init()
function, as this is just a hack, and use the setup via the em28xx-cards
commented entries:

		.tuner_type   = TUNER_XC5000,
		.tuner_addr   = 0x41,
		.dvb_gpio     = hauppauge_930c_digital,
		.tuner_gpio   = hauppauge_930c_gpio,
