DVB drivers generally have device addresses such as tuner_addresses and
demod_adresses defined in a config struct least to prevent them from
being global, wherever the header is included, since the very same
device can have multiple addresses and so on, which are non-probable
since being behind a repeater which is switched by a demod (private) and
hence.
Those are some of the reasons to follow a certain coding
style/conventions. They are _not_ for fun.
