[PATCH] Decrease number of pointer derefs in flexcop-fe-tuner.c

[Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Here's a small patch to decrease the number of pointer derefs in
drivers/media/dvb/b2c2/flexcop-fe-tuner.c

Benefits of the patch:
 - Fewer pointer dereferences should make the code slightly faster.
 - Size of generated code is smaller
 - Improved readability

Please consider applying.
