tuner-xc2028.c fix for EVGA inDtube tuner

[mrf <gc2majortom@gmail.com>]

Hi,
Let me begin with, I'm an end user, not a programmer...

I have noticed the EVGA inDtube tuner that I use (North American ATSC)
has been broken for quite a while. The Frequency offsets are wrong,
and up till now I have always had to fudge the frequency to account
for the incorrect offset. 
I found a fix that works for me, and waiting for a friend of mine,
another inDtube user, to try the same fix and get back to me.

Pending his report, would it be possible to get this fixed in the
kernel for good?

Thanks,

Bill

/ linux / drivers / media / common / tuners / tuner-xc2028.c

was commented out by someone somewhere along the way in development. Putting the
commented code back in, the inDtube tuner works correctly, no more having to
fudge the frequency offset in user land.

Would it be possible to get this fixed for good in the kernel?
I am using xc3028L-v36.fw firmware

here is a snippet adding two comments, to remove the comments.
