Sorry for not looking on it earlier... Has been very busy those days,
and the dvb sub-maintainer has not been responsive lately, due to some
personal issues.

The patch itself looks good, but I'm not seeing any documentation.

You should likely add something to Documentation/ABI and to the
DVB uAPI (Documentation/media/uapi/dvb).

Doing it for each multi-adapter device is something that bothers
me. The better would be if we could move this to the DVB Kernel,
in order to not need to check/fix every driver. If, otherwise,
this is not possible, then we need a patch fixing port_num for
all drivers that support multiple adapters.

Also, the risk of forgetting it seems high. So, perhaps we should
add a new parameter to some function (like at dvb_register_device
or at dvb_register_frontend), in order to make the port number
a mandatory attribute.
