Oops, I was wrong. You need this regardless for the simple reason that the spec
mandates it. And indeed without s_modulator v4l2-compliance will fail.

I've put back this function, but replacing the index check with the one-liner I
suggested above.

I'm merging this hackrf patch series with that change and a small fix for the
krobot 'unused intf' warning, so you don't need to do anything.

Thanks for doing this work!
