If MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT and VIDEO_GO7007 are both set, we
automatically select VIDEO_OV7640, but that depends on MEDIA_CAMERA_SUPPORT,
so we get a Kconfig warning if that is disabled:

warning: (VIDEO_GO7007) selects VIDEO_OV7640 which has unmet direct dependencies (MEDIA_SUPPORT && I2C && VIDEO_V4L2 && MEDIA_CAMERA_SUPPORT)

This adds another dependency so we don't accidentally select
it when it is unavailable.

This is another bogus warning.

The MEDIA_foo_SUPPORT actually controls what drivers are visible,
but it doesn't enable any driver. They just control the visibility
of the drivers, and the APIs that will be enabled (V4L2 and/or DVB).

The aim of MEDIA_foo_SUPPORT is to make life easier to end users,
making easier for them to filter the drivers that they may need.

If one selects MEDIA_VIDEO_SUPPORT, the V4L2 API (and V4L core) will be 
enabled, and all drivers that support a camera should appear at the 
menu, including drivers that *also* support other features (like TV
and/or stream support).

That's the case of go7007.

That has nothing to do with the features selection for such driver.

Once go7007 driver is selected, if MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT, all
i2c drivers that cope together with go7007 are selected, making the
driver to fully support all devices it knows.

Advanced users may unselect MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT and add there just
the I2C driver(s) it needs for his specific hardware.

Despite the warning, the Kconfig will do the right thing, not
allowing invalid configurations.

Regards,
Mauro

Hmm... on a second thought, it could make sense to only auto-select
the sensor drivers if MEDIA_CAMERA_SUPPORT, and to only auto-select
tuners if MEDIA_*_TV_SUPPORT is selected.

However, in this case, we'll need to dig into all Kconfig autoselect
options in order to make it right.

I guess we should also likely need to document to the user that the
driver won't be fully supported, as we'll be changing the behavior
of the menus.

Comments?

Mauro
