I don't think so as Alex's patches are for demodulator (stb0899) but my was 
for tuner (stb6100). 

Regarding stb6100 doc the tuning procedure should be:
1. Disable PLL (LPEN_LPEN)
2. Set-up the tuner
3. Start PLL
4. Start VCO search
5. Wait for 5 ms
6. Disable VCO search, turn off VCO search clock and disable LPF BW clock

The steps 1-5 should be done in 5 steps (not less) and as I remeber I've got 
better result when inserting small delay between steps 1 and 2 and the delay 
from step 5 was set to 10ms. In stb6100.c are steps 1 and 2 done together 
within 1 write to stb6100 registers and this seems to be not optimal for some 
modulations.

Regards,

Ales
