[RFC 4/4] media: dvb_frontend: disable zigzag mode if not possible

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Wed Jun 17 2020 - 14:52:26 EST


For the zigzag to work, the core needs to have a frequency
shift. Without that, the zigzag code will just try re-tuning
several times at the very same frequency, with seems wrong.

So, add a warning when this happens, and fall back to the
single-shot mode.
