mb86a20s: Add a few more register settings at the init seq
Some time ago, Manoel sent us a patch adding more stuff
to the init sequence. However, his patch were also doing
non-related stuff, by changing the init logic without
any good reason. So, it was asked for him to submit a
patch with just the data that has changed, in order to
allow us to better analyze it.
As he didn't what it was requested, I finally found some
time to dig into his init sequence and add it here.
Basically, new stuff is added there. There are a few changes:
1) The removal of the extra (duplicated) logic that puts
the chip into the serial mode;
2) Some Viterbi VBER measurement init data was changed from
0x00 to 0xff for layer A, to match what was done for
layers B and C.
None of those caused any regressions and both make sense
on my eyes.
The other parameters additions actually increased the
tuning quality for some channels. Yet, some channels that
were previously discovered with scan disappered, while
others appeared instead. This were tested in Brasilia,
with an external antena.
At the overall, it is now a little better. So, better to
add these, and then try to figure out a configuration that
would get even better scanning results.
