Description
Today, TVHE just showed an empty interface (layout was there, but no EPG/device/dvr information).
The reason was a crashed dvb device.
To avoid loss of recordings on other devices, TVHE should try to close and reopen the file descriptor of a crashed device. If that fails three times, TVHE should disable the device and log a message.

and how does tvheadend know that the device has crashed?

As all information in EPG, recording schedule, channel list and all information about the dvb adapters (General, Multiplexes, Services, Satellite Config) vanished (just empty frames), I assume that there were also problems with accessing the DVB adapter(s). In case ioctl calls return an error or an adapter does not provide a TS, TVHE can close and reopen the file descriptor.
