You forgot to declare this constant somewhere with #define.

It is not that simple. You need to setup the GPIO pins of your device, and
set the DVB frontend according to how this is wired inside the board,
and providing the information about the used frontend. I think that your
device is based on mb86a20s demod. You need to tell that to cx23885-dvb,
providing the type of connection used (serial or parallel).
It requires you some knowledge about Engineering, as well as C programming
experience.
Mauro.
