There are lots of drivers that only work when the media controller and/or the V4L2 subdev APIs are present. Right now, someone need to first enable those APIs before using those drivers. Well, ideally, drivers, should, instead *optionally* depend on it, in order for PC camera drivers to be able to use them, but nowadays most drivers are UVC cameras, with don't require a sensor driver. So, be it. Let's instead make them select the MEDIA_CONTROLLER and the SUBDEV API, in order to make easier for people to be able of enabling them.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
