Instead of using the DTV properties cache directly, pass the get
frontend data as an argument. For now, everything should remain
the same, but the next patch will prevent get_frontend to
affect the global cache.
This is needed because several drivers don't care enough to only
change the properties if locked. Due to that, calling
G_PROPERTY before locking on those drivers will make them to
never lock. Ok, those drivers are crap and should never be
merged like that, but the core should not rely that the drivers
would be doing the right thing.

Soon my dibcom.fr/parrot.com-address won't respond anymore.
Thus I'm replacing it. And, while being at it,
let's adapt some other (old) email-addresses as well.

The DVB API was originally defined using typedefs. This is against
Kernel CodingStyle, and there's no good usage here. While we can't
remove its usage on userspace, we can avoid its usage in Kernelspace.
So, let's do it.
This patch was generated by this shell script:
for j in $(grep typedef include/uapi/linux/dvb/frontend.h |cut -d' ' -f 3); do for i in $(find drivers/media -name '*.[ch]' -type f) $(find drivers/staging/media -name '*.[ch]' -type f); do sed "s,${j}_t,enum $j," <$i >a && mv a $i; done; done
While here, make CodingStyle fixes on the affected lines.

dib7000p is for DVB, and not ISDB. So, there's no layer.
That removes this compilation warning:

Calibrate the signal strength to dB.
For this callibration, I used adapter 0 (antenna 1), connected
via a normal cable to a DTF-2111 generator.
The same cabling and RF generator connected to adapter 1
(antenna 2) has a difference of +3dBm (signal was stronger
there).
Yet, changing the RF for a difference of, let's say, 6dB
reflected on a 6dB difference at the measured signal, with
is good.
So, the signal strengh can indeed be used to measure the
antenna gain, if the antenna is repositioned. It is
not precise to measure the absolute dBm value, however.

Adds DVBv5 stats support. For now, just mimic whatever dib8000
does, as they're very similar, with regards to statistics.
However, dib7000p_get_time_us() likely require some
adjustments, as I didn't actually reviewed the formula
for it to work with DVB-T. Still, better than nothing,
as latter patches can improve it.
This patch also doesn't show the signal strength in dB
yet. The code is already there, but it requires to be
callibrated.
A latter patch will do the calibration.
It seems that this patch is also a bug fix: Before this
patch, the frontend were not tuning with some userspace
tools. I suspect that dib7000p firmware or hardware
internally expects that the statistics to be collected,
in order for it to work. With this patch, the DVB core
will always retrive statistics, even if userspace doesn't
request. So, it makes the device work on all tested apps.

Exporting multiple symbols don't work as it causes compilation
breakages, due to the way dvb_attach() works.
This were reported several times, like:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `cxusb_dualdig4_rev2_tuner_attach':
>> cxusb.c:(.text+0x27d4b5): undefined reference to `dib7000p_get_i2c_master'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `dib7070_set_param_override':
cxusb.c:(.text+0x27d5a5): undefined reference to `dib0070_wbd_offset'
>> cxusb.c:(.text+0x27d5be): undefined reference to `dib7000p_set_wbd_ref'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `dib7070_tuner_reset':
>> cxusb.c:(.text+0x27d5f9): undefined reference to `dib7000p_set_gpio'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `cxusb_dualdig4_rev2_frontend_attach':
>> cxusb.c:(.text+0x27df5c): undefined reference to `dib7000p_i2c_enumeration'
In this specific report:
CONFIG_DVB_USB_CXUSB=y
CONFIG_DVB_DIB7000P=m
But the same type of bug can happen if:
CONFIG_DVB_DIB7000P=m
and one of the bridge drivers is compiled builtin (cxusb, cx23885-dvb
and/or dib0700).
As a bonus, dib7000p won't be loaded anymore if the device uses
a different frontend, reducing the memory footprint.
Tested with Hauppauge Nova-TD (2 frontends).

Well, what we call as "foo_attach" is the method that should
be called by the dvb_attach() macro.
It should be noticed that the name "dvb_attach" is really a
bad name and don't express what it does.
dvb_attach() basically does three things, if the frontend is
compiled as a module:
- It lookups for the module that it is known to have the
given symbol name and requests such module;
- It increments the module usage (anonymously - so lsmod
doesn't print who loaded the module);
- after loading the module, it runs the function associated
with the dynamic symbol.
When compiled as builtin, it just calls the function given to it.
As dvb_attach() increments refcount, it can't be (easily)
called more than once for the same module, or the kernel
will deny to remove the module, because refcount will never
be zeroed.
In other words, the function name given to dvb_attach()
should be one single symbol that will always be called
before any other function on that module to be used.
For almost all DVB frontends, there's just one function.
However, the dib7000p initialization can require up to 3
functions to be called:
- dib7000p_get_i2c_master;
- dib7000p_i2c_enumeration;
- dib7000p_init (before this patch dib7000_attach).
(plus a bunch of other functions that the bridge driver will
need to call).
As we need to get rid of all those direct calls, because they
cause compilation breakages when bridge is builtin and
frontend is module, we'll need to add a new function that
will be the first one to be called, whatever initialization
is needed.
So, let's rename the function that probes and init the hardware
to dib7000p_init.
A latter patch will add a new dib7000p_attach that will be
used as originally conceived by dvb_attach() way.

The intend of this patch is to improve the support of the dib7000p. It is
now possible to set the minimum value for the AGC1. Also, the driver takes
into account the frequency offset introduced in the tuned frequency.
