Subject: stv090x vs stv0900 support

Im looking for comments on these two modules, they overlap support for the same 
demods. stv0900 supporting stv0900 and stv090x supporting
stv0900 and stv0903. Ive flipped a few cards from one to the other and they 
function fine. In some ways stv090x is better suited. Its a pain supporting two 
modules that are written differently but do the same thing, a fix in one almost 
always means it has to be implemented in the other as well.

Im not necessarily suggesting dumping stv0900, but Id like to flip a few cards 
that I own over to stv090x just to standardize it. The Prof
7301 and Prof 7500.

Whats everyones thoughts on this? It will cut the number of patch''s in half 
when it comes to these demods. Ive got alot more coming lol :)

stv0900 is better separated from the tuner whilst stv090x has weird
stv6110x_devctl structure. That's why I used stv0900 for anysee driver.
I wonder is there something special supported by stv090x because normal
tuner/demod callbacks are not enough.
That's probably for the ddbridge driver, while ours is pretty old (0.5) Ralph/oliver is working on 0.9 atm. 0.8.6 still uses the same structure i think.
