The following kern.log excerpt shows MythTV setting up the card:

Note that DTV_DELIVERY_SYSTEM is set to 0 which worked OK in 2.6.39

That doesn't fix this problem, which is explicitly setting
DTV_DELIVERY_SYSTEM.  A value of 0 (SYS_UNDEFINED) was accepted before
this change and should continue to be accepted.  In
dtv_property_cache_submit the comment reads:

/* For legacy delivery systems we don't need the delivery_system to
 * be specified, but we populate the older structures from the cache
 * so we can call set_frontend on older drivers.
