V4L/DVB (3639): Reduce FWSEND due to certain I2C bus adapter limits
The FWSEND parameter controls the size of the firmware chunks sent down the I2C bus to the chip. Previously this had been set to 1024 but unfortunately some I2C implementations can't transfer data in such big gulps. Specifically, the pvrusb2 driver has a hard limit of around 60 bytes, due to the encapsulation there of I2C traffic into USB messages. So we have to significantly reduce this parameter.
