This driver was written from scratch, based on an existing driver
that it is part of rtl-sdr git tree, released under GPLv2:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ultra-cheap-sdr/Y3rBEOFtHughttps://github.com/n1gp/gr-bazhttp://cgit.osmocom.org/rtl-sdr/plain/src/tuner_r820t.c
(there are also other variants of it out there)
>From what I understood from the threads, the original driver was converted
to userspace from a Realtek tree. I couldn't find the original tree.
However, the original driver look awkward on my eyes. So, I decided to
write a new version from it from the scratch, while trying to reproduce
everything found there.
TODO:
- After locking, the original driver seems to have some routines to
improve reception. This was not implemented here yet.
- RF Gain set/get is not implemented.

It is tuner driver for tuner integrated to the ITE IT9135 and
IT9137 chips. I split it out from the current it913x-fe driver.

A number of old drivers still had the experimental tag. Time to remove it.
It concerns the following drivers:
VIDEO_TLV320AIC23B
USB_STKWEBCAM
VIDEO_CX18
VIDEO_CX18_ALSA
VIDEO_ZORAN_AVS6EYES
DVB_USB_AF9005
MEDIA_TUNER_TEA5761
VIDEO_NOON010PC30
This decision was taken during the 2012 Media Workshop.

Instead of having 3 options to allow customizing the media
sub-drivers (tuners, I2C drivers, frontends), merge all of
them into just one.
That simplifies the life for users, as they can just keep
this untouched.
Life for developers is also simpler, as there's now just
one Kconfig item to remember, for the ancillary sub-drivers
providing supports for chips that could change from one
board design to another.

Move the tuners one level up, as the "common" directory will be used
by drivers that are shared between more than one driver.
