Hi,
I'd like to add this to the driver, but don't want to blow up the source
for small STB's. Is it possible to encapsulate all this stuff into one
or two extra files?

Most of it, yeah. Some parts hitch a ride on top of existing code though, such
as init and de-init functions. Some extra fields are added to some of the
data structures, etc.
this would be ok.
I'm not sure I understand what you mean with not blowing up the source. Not
defining USE_PROCFS gives you the old driver, line-for-line. Notice the patch
has basically no "-" lines, I have not altered the existing driver, but do
all workarounds inside USE_PROCFS, so that I don't screw up something that
works :-)) So the compiled module is exactly what it was without proc_fs. Do
you mean source code complication itself (i.e. moving as much proc_fs code as
possible out of the driver code into seperate files)? I will fix that anyway,
even on principle :-)
(yes, I meant source code complication -- things are complex enough
right now;)
Any thoughts on directory/file layout in procfs? Is /proc/dvb even a good
place? Any pointers I should follow while moving all proc_fs code to seperate
file(s)?
/proc/dvb should be fine.
