  Once the CX23885 driver is loaded, and the new board recognized, 3 new i2c bus
are added. The state may be dumped with the i2c-tools-3.0.3 package,  e.g.:

i2c-tools-3.0.3/tools/i2cdetect -l
...
    i2c-12      unknown         cx23885[0]
    i2c-13      unknown         cx23885[0]                                      
                       # SPD EEPROM
    i2c-14      unknown         cx23885[0]                                      
                       # SPD EEPROM

Adding the subsystem pci IDs is enough to be sure that the CX23885 driver is
loaded properly (the previous patch add theses lines).

After this stage; the following command dump an I2C bus:
i2c-tools-3.0.3/tools/i2cdetect -y $[12 + 0]

     0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  a  b  c  d  e  f

The DVB-T chip is here at the address : 0x1c
