The SPI driver looked a bit lonely in the config menu, and it didn't
support the autoselect. Shift things around a bit so it looks more logical.

You can read datasheet here:
http://www.c-dis.net/media/871/GS1662_Datasheet.pdf
It's a component which supports HD and SD CEA or SDI formats
to SDI output. It's configured through SPI bus.
GS1662 driver is implemented as v4l2 subdev.

- Use IS_REACHABLE(RC_CORE) instead of IS_ENABLED: if cec is built-in and
RC_CORE is a module, then CEC can't reach the RC symbols.
- Both cec and cec-edid should be bool and use the same build 'mode' as
MEDIA_SUPPORT (just as is done for the media controller code).
- Add a note to staging that this should be changed once the cec framework
is moved out of staging.

The cec-edid module contains helper functions to find and manipulate
the CEC physical address inside an EDID. Even if the CEC support itself
is disabled, drivers will still need these functions. Which is the
reason this is module is separate from the upcoming CEC framework.

Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
- Lots of improvements at the DVB API DocBook documentation. Now, the
frontend and the network APIs are fully in sync with the Kernel and
looks more like the rest of the media documentation;
- New frontend driver: cx24120
- New driver for a PCI device: cobalt. This driver is actually not
sold in the market, but it is a good example of a multi-HDMI input
device;
- The dt3155 driver were promoted from staging;
- The mantis driver got remote controller support;
- New V4L2 driver for ST bdisp SoC chipsets;
- Make sparse and smatch happier: several bugs were solved by fixing
the issues reported by those static code analyzers.
- Lots of new device additions, new features, improvements and cleanups
at the existing drivers.

Since when we start discussions about the usage Media Controller for
complex hardware, one thing become clear: the way it is, MC fails to
map anything different than capture/output/m2m video-only streaming.
The point is that MC has entities named as devnodes, but the only
devnode used (before the DVB patches) is MEDIA_ENT_T_DEVNODE_V4L.
Due to the way MC got implemented, however, this entity actually
doesn't represent the devnode, but the hardware I/O engine that
receives data via DMA.
By coincidence, such DMA is associated with the V4L device node
on webcam hardware, but this is not true even for other V4L2
devices. For example, on USB hardware, the DMA is done via the
USB controller. The data passes though a in-kernel filter that
strips off the URB headers. Other V4L2 devices like radio may not
even have DMA. When it have, the DMA is done via ALSA, and not
via the V4L devnode.
In other words, MC is broken as a whole, but tagging it as BROKEN
right now would do more harm than good.
So, instead, let's mark, for now, the DVB part as broken and
block all new changes to MC while we fix this mess, whith
we hopefully will do for the next Kernel version.

These drivers haven't been tested in a long, long time. The hardware is
ancient and hopelessly obsolete. These drivers also need to be converted
to newer media frameworks but due to the lack of hardware that's going
to be impossible. In addition, cheaper and vastly better hardware is
available today.
So these drivers are a prime candidate for removal. If someone is
interested in working on these drivers to prevent their removal, then
please contact the linux-media mailinglist.
Let's be honest, the age of parallel port webcams and ISA video capture
boards is really gone.

We should not select SPI bus when sub-driver auto-select is
selected. That option is meant for auto-selecting all possible
ancillary drivers used for selected board driver. Ancillary
drivers should define needed dependencies itself.
I2C and I2C_MUX are still selected here for a reason described on

As reported by the kbuild test robot <fengguang.wu@intel.com>:
> warning: (VIDEO_EM28XX_DVB) selects DVB_M88DS3103 which has unmet direct dependencies (MEDIA_SUPPORT && DVB_CORE && I2C && I2C_MUX)
> drivers/built-in.o: In function `m88ds3103_release':

There are 3 possible ways to fix it:
1) make em28xx dependent on I2C_MUX.
That sounds wrong, as the em28xx bridge doesn't have i2c muxes on it,
and just one frontend has.
Well, subdevs could eventually be converted to, instead of using dvb
i2c gate control, to use i2c mux support.
That makes sense, but it takes time and lots of effort. Not sure if
this will happen anytime soon.
2) MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT can be dependent of I2C and I2C_MUX.
That means that users will need to manually enable I2C_MUX on some
distributions. Not sure about others, but, on Fedora, this option is
disabled.
So, it can end by generating a number of complains from users
that their devices suddenly stopped working after a Kernel upgrade,
at least until all distros that ship Kernels with I2C_MUX enabled.
3) if MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT is selected, it will select I2C and I2C_MUX.
Of course, MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT will need to inherit all dependencies
that I2C and I2C_MUX have (only HAS_IOMEM).
The disadvantage is that, if new dependencies are added on I2C, they'll
also need to be added here.
As the hole idea of autoselect is to let the user not bother about whatever
frontend/tuner is used by a driver, IMHO, (3) is the better solution.

This is happening because a builtin module can't use directly a symbol
found on a module. By enabling CONFIG_MEDIA_ATTACH, the configuration
becomes valid, as dvb_attach() macro loads the module if needed, making
the symbol available to the builtin module.
While this bug started to appear after the patches that use IS_DEFINED
macro (like changeset 7b34be71db533f3e0cf93d53cf62d036cdb5418a), this
bug is a way ancient than that.
The thing is that, before the IS_DEFINED() patches, the logic used to be:
&& defined(MODULE))
struct dvb_frontend *zl10039_attach(struct dvb_frontend *fe,
u8 i2c_addr,
struct i2c_adapter *i2c);
static inline struct dvb_frontend *zl10039_attach(struct dvb_frontend *fe,
u8 i2c_addr,
struct i2c_adapter *i2c)
{
printk(KERN_WARNING "%s: driver disabled by Kconfig\n", __func__);
return NULL;
}
The above code, with the .config file used, was evoluting to FALSE
(instead of TRUE as it should be, as CONFIG_DVB_ZL10039 is 'm'),
and were adding the static inline code at saa7134-dvb, instead
of the external call. So, while it weren't producing any compilation
error, the code weren't working either.
So, as the overhead for using CONFIG_MEDIA_ATTACH is minimal, just
enable it, if MODULES is defined.

This option is a merge of both analog TV and DVB CUSTOMISE.
At the merge, the dependencies were not done right: the menu

In the past, it was possible to have either DVB or V4L2 core
as module and the other as builtin. Such config never make much
sense, and created several issues in order to make the Kconfig
dependency to work, as all drivers that depend on both (most
TV drivers) would need to be compiled as 'm'. Due to that,
the VIDEO_MEDIA config option were added.
Instead of such weird approach, let's just use the MEDIA_SUPPORT
=y or =m to select if the media subsystem core will be either
builtin or module, simplifying the building system logic.
Also, fix the tuners configuration, by enabling them only if
a tuner is required. So, if just webcam/grabbers support is
selected, no tuner option will be selected. Also, if only digital
TV is selected, no analog tuner support is selected.
That removes the need of using EXPERT customise options, when
analog TV is not selected.

dabusb driver were conceived as an experimental driver for a test
device. The driver never supported any shipped product, and, while
there were some updates on it in 2003, for an ancient product,
those changes were never submitted upstream.
Also, there's no DocBook for its API, nor any upstream discussion.
So, better to remove it, on .39. If later needed, we may rescue it
from git logs. For now, let's move it to staging.

There's no sense on keeping VIDEO_V4L1 Kconfig option just because of
two deprecated drivers moved to staging scheduled to die on 2.6.39.

All of the hard problems for BKL removal appear to be solved in the
v4l-dvb/master tree. This removes the BKL from the various open
functions that do not need it, or only use it to protect an
open count.
The zoran driver is nontrivial in this regard, so I introduce
a new mutex that locks both the open/release and the ioctl
functions. Someone with access to the hardware can probably
improve that by using the existing lock in all cases.
Finally, all drivers that still use the locked version of the
ioctl function now get called under a new mutex instead of
the BKL.
