While the above will very likely makes sense, once we add the missing
functionality at the dummy frontend, please don't add fields at the
struct while they're not used, as this makes harder for reviewers to be
sure that we're not adding bloatware at the code.

That sounds wrong to me, at least on this patch as-is. Please remember that
we want one logical change per patch.

It means that, if you add a state->frontend_status at the driver, the
patch should implement the entire logic for it.

In other words, when the device is not tuned, status should return 0 and
when the device is tuned, it should return:

  FE_HAS_SIGNAL | FE_HAS_CARRIER | FE_HAS_VITERBI | FE_HAS_SYNC | FE_HAS_LOCK


So, while it is OK to move the status into a var at state, you need also
to modify the set_frontend part of the code for it to properly initalize
the state->frontend_status var.

Hmm...what's the sense of adding it? Where are you setting it to false?
Where are you using the sleeping state?
