    [media] dvb: Add DVBv5 statistics properties · 9569793a
    Mauro Carvalho Chehab authored
    The DVBv3 statistics parameters are limited on several ways:
            - It doesn't provide any way to indicate the used measure,
    	  so userspace need to guess how to calculate/use it;
            - Only a limited set of stats are supported;
            - Can't be called in a way to require them to be filled
              all at once (atomic reads from the hardware), with may
              cause troubles on interpreting them on userspace;
            - On some OFDM delivery systems, the carriers can be
              independently modulated, having different properties.
              Currently, there's no way to report per-layer stats.
    To address the above issues, adding a new DVBv5-based stats API.
    While here, correct inner code nomenclature on a few places.
