It is probably more useful to pass the raw 3-byte rds data blocks from
the kernel into userspace and do the actual decoding of the data
within the application (or a shared library).

I also think it would be nice to build that as i2c sub-driver (much
like the tuner module), so you can just open(/dev/radio),
ioctl(S_FREQ), ioctl(S_FMT, RDS), read() to get the RDS data.
