    [media] tda18271c2dd: Fix saw filter configuration for DVB-C @6MHz · cf845297
    Mauro Carvalho Chehab authored
    Currently, the driver assumes that all QAM carriers are spaced with
    8MHz. This is wrong, and may decrease QoS on Countries like Brazil,
    that have DVB-C carriers with 6MHz-spaced.
    
    Fortunately, both ITU-T J-83 and EN 300 429 specifies a way to
    associate the symbol rate with the bandwidth needed for it.
    
    For ITU-T J-83 2007 annex A, the maximum symbol rate for 6 MHz is:
    	6 MHz / 1.15 = 5217391 Bauds
    For  ITU-T J-83 2007 annex C, the maximum symbol rate for 6 MHz is:
    	6 MHz / 1.13 = 5309735 Bauds.
    
    As this tuner is currently used only for DRX-K, and it is currently
    hard-coded to annex A, I've opted to use the roll-off factor of 0.15,
    instead of 0.13.
    
    If we ever support annex C, the better would be to add a DVB S2API
    call to allow changing between Annex A and C, and add the 0.13 roll-off
    factor to it.
    
    This code is currently being used on other frontends, so I think we
    should later add a core function with this code, to warrant that
    it will be properly implemented everywhere.
