[PATCH v2 2/2] staging: media: av7110: fix sp8870 initialization failure state

[Punnay Sharma <punnaysharma805@gmail.com>]

The SP8870 DVB frontend driver prematurely flags the device as
initialized at the very beginning of the sp8870_init() routine, prior
to requesting the firmware (dvb-fe-sp8870.fw) and executing the I2C
upload sequence.

If request_firmware() times out or sp8870_firmware_upload() encounters
an I2C bus error, the function aborts and returns -EIO. However,
because `state->initialised` is already set to 1, all subsequent
invocations of `fe->ops.init()` by the DVB core will immediately return
0 (success) without attempting to load the firmware again. This leaves
the demodulator microcontroller halted and the frontend permanently dead
until the module is forcibly reloaded.

Relocate the `state->initialised = 1` assignment to the end of
sp8870_init(), ensuring the flag is only set after the firmware is
successfully uploaded and the system controller is actually restarted.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
