Hi!

The GPIO-Pins that are used are the same on both cards. And I assume the
ones that control Si2165 on HVR-5500 are just unused on Starburst, so
setting them does not hurt (and Antti confirmed that the patch works).

The cards have more in common, but I could not find a clean way to share
attaching and TS-config of the DVB-S2 frontend.

So I will change the commit message, prefix subject with PATCH fix, and
resend the patch here and c/c to stable.

Regards
Matthias
