[media] dvb: remove bogus modulation check
This code is wrong as I should have coded it as SYS_DVBC, instead of
SYS_DVBS & friends. Anyway, this check has other problems
1) it does some "magic" by assuming that all QAM modulations are below
QAM_AUTO;
2) it checks modulation parameters only for one delivery system.
Or the core should check invalid parameters for all delivery
systems, or it should let the frontend drivers do it;
3) frontend drivers should already be checking for invalid parameters
(most of them do it, anyway);
4) not all modulations are mapped at fe->ops.info.caps, so it is not
even possible to check for the valid modulations inside the core
for some delivery systems;
5) The core check is incomplete anyway: it only checks for a few
parameters. If moved into the core other parameters like bandwidth
and fec should also be checked;
6) 2nd gen DVB-C uses OFDM. So, that test would fail for it.
