Subject[PATCH] media: dvb-frontends: a8293: fix LNB powerup failure in PCTV 461e
Date
Fixes a8293 failure to raise LNB voltage in PCTV 461e DVB-S2 Stick
affecting multiple users over several years as found here:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/pctv-dvb-s2-stick-461e-not-feeding-lnb-4175529374/
https://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Pinnacle_PCTV_DVB-S2_Stick_(461e)
https://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv/issues/3731

Caused by vIN undervoltage lockout (status register bit 7) when raising LNB to 18V.
Addressed by using the higher-precision voltages available on the a8293 to gradually
increase (slew) the voltage when voltage increases are requested.

Adds volt_slew_nanos_per_mv to a8293_platform_data struct for specifying slew rate.
If value is <1 or non-sane (>1600), the original no-slew version for a8293_set_voltage is used.
