[PATCH] firedtv: fix regression: tuning fails due to bogus errorreturn

From: Stefan Richter
Date: Sat Oct 17 2009 - 16:47:03 EST


Since 2.6.32(-rc1), DVB core checks the return value of
dvb_frontend_ops.set_frontend. Now it becomes apparent that firedtv
always returned a bogus value from its set_frontend method.
