Now that this field is deprecated, and core generates it for
DVBv3 calls, remove it from the drivers.

It also adds .delsys on the few drivers where this were missed.

Instead of using dvb_frontend_parameters struct, that were
designed for a subset of the supported standards, use the DVBv5
cache information.

Also, fill the supported delivery systems at dvb_frontend_ops
struct.

Passing DVBv3 parameters to set_frontend is not fun, as the
core doesn't have any way to know if the driver is using the
v3 or v5 parameters. So, rename the callback and add a new
one to allow distinguish between a mixed v3/v5 paramenter call
from a pure v5 call.

After having all frontends to use the new way, the legacy
call can be removed.

This is a big patch, yet trivial: now that all tuners use the DVBv5
way to pass parameters (e. g. via fe-&gt;dtv_property_cache), the
extra parameter can be removed from set_params() call.

After this change, very few DVBv3 specific stuff are left at the
tuners.

<title>V4L/DVB (12440): Use kzalloc for frontend states to have struct dvb_frontend properly</title>

<id>084e24acc906c162c92de7df807190856ae60928</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch changes most frontend drivers to allocate their state structure via
kzalloc and not kmalloc. This is done to properly initialize the
embedded "struct dvb_frontend frontend" field, that they all have.

The visible effect of this struct being uninitalized is, that the member "id"
that is used to set the name of kernel thread is totally random.

Some board drivers (for example cx88-dvb) set this "id" via
videobuf_dvb_alloc_frontend but most do not.

So I at least get random id values for saa7134, flexcop and ttpci based cards.
It looks like this in dmesg:
DVB: registering adapter 1 frontend -10551321 (ST STV0299 DVB-S)

The related kernel thread then also gets a strange name
like "kdvb-ad-1-fe--1".

Use release_firmware() to free requested resources.

According to Documentation/firmware_class/README the request_firmware()
call should be followed by a release_firmware().  Some drivers do not
however free the firmware previously allocated with request_firmware().
This patch tries to fix this by making sure that release_firmware() is used
as expected.
