rtl: remove residue DC component introduced by RTL chip

received from Juha Vierinen:

A student here noticed that there is dc bias even with the rafael tuner.
We looked into this issue and found that using 127.4f instead of 127.5f
removes this bias. I assume this is associated with a bug in the digital
downconversion of the RTL chip. This change fixes the problem.
