In the meantime you could just copy the drivers from the ATV image to a vix image....

You can download the driver from here:
http://archiv.openmips.com/beta/gigablue-drivers-4.8.3-BCM7356-20170502.zip

Make a full image backup and also copy this file somewhere where you can retrieve it if something goes wrong:

/lib/modules/4.8.3/extra/dvb.ko

Then unzip what you just downloaded and overwrite this file:
/lib/modules/4.8.3/extra/dvb.ko


Is there a list of issues fixed in this latest driver release?

All I can see is fix ci-slots.

strange I flashed openATV version 6 and it made no difference. I will try this copy of the driver set. Worth a go I suppose.
