I must be missing something... How this code is aligned to the following
modulation enumeration?
QPSK enumeration has value 0, 8PSK value 9.

typedef enum fe_modulation {
   QPSK,
   QAM_16,
   QAM_32,
   QAM_64,
   QAM_128,
   QAM_256,
   QAM_AUTO,
   VSB_8,
   VSB_16,
   PSK_8,
   APSK_16,
   APSK_32,
   DQPSK,
} fe_modulation_t;
