From b6bd5eb871184dd976ce2d410888b2a29d90371a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Devin Heitmueller Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2009 13:53:38 -0300 Subject: V4L/DVB (11798): xc5000: add "no_poweroff" module option Provide for the ability for a user to disable putting the tuner to sleep, in case he doesn't want to incur the cost of reloading the firmware when starting up his/her application. The module options are intentionally identical to xc3028.
