Mauro Carvalho Chehab c39d57044a media: Kconfig: use a sub-menu to select supported devices
The media subsystem has hundreds of driver-specific options.
The *_SUPPORT config options work as a sort of filter,
allowing to reduce its complexity for users that won't
want to dig into thousands of options they don't need.

Yet, it the filtering options are becoming large. So, let's
place it on a sub-menu.

Enable support for HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control),
which is an optional HDMI feature.
Say Y when you have an HDMI receiver, transmitter or a USB CEC
adapter that supports HDMI CEC.
config MEDIA_PLATFORM_SUPPORT
bool "Platform-specific devices"
help
Enable support for complex cameras, codecs, and other hardware
that are integrated at the CPU, GPU or on Image Signalling Processor
and don't use PCI, USB or Firewire buses.
This is found on Embedded hardware (SoC), on V4L2 codecs and
on some GPU and newer CPU chipsets.
Say Y when you want to be able so see such devices.
config MEDIA_TEST_SUPPORT
bool "Test drivers"
help
Those drivers should not be used on production Kernels, but
can be useful on debug ones. It enables several dummy drivers
that simulate a real hardware. Very useful to test userspace
applications and to validate if the subsystem core is doesn't
have regressions.
Say Y if you want to use some virtual test driver.
In case of doubts, say N.
Say Y when you have a software defined radio device.

This option enables DVB experimental memory-mapped API, which
reduces the number of context switches to read DVB buffers, as
the buffers can use mmap() syscalls.
Support for it is experimental. Use with care. If unsure,
say N.

This option enables DVB Network Support which is a part of the DVB
standard. It is used, for example, by automatic firmware updates used
on Set-Top-Boxes. It can also be used to access the Internet via the
DVB card, if the network provider supports it.
You may want to disable the network support on embedded devices. If
unsure say Y.

help
By default, a media driver auto-selects all possible ancillary
devices such as tuners, sensors, video encoders/decoders and
frontends, that are used by any of the supported devices.
This is generally the right thing to do, except when there
are strict constraints with regards to the kernel size,
like on embedded systems.
Use this option with care, as deselecting ancillary drivers which
are, in fact, necessary will result in the lack of the needed
functionality for your device (it may not tune or may not have
the needed demodulators).
If unsure say Y.
