Hi all,

This coverity checker is great. He even finds all the things which are 
there because I'm lazy ;) .

The dibXXXX-drivers are all generated from our internal drivers to have at 
least something for Linux. Because of no time there is no dedicated 
source for the kernel but just the processed one.

The particular issue here is, that the internal architecture supports a 
variable bandwidth while the linux-dvb architecture only has 3 fixed 
values. 

I know that in the future the linux-dvb-API will also support other 
bandwidths so I'm begging for mercy for those 3 things here to not get too 
much out-of-sync with our internal code.

thanks,
Patrick.
