[PATCH] media: pvrusb2: fix DVB_CORE dependency

[Arnd Bergmann]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

Now that DVB_CORE can be a loadable module, pvrusb2 can run into
a link error:

ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: dvb_module_probe
>>> referenced by pvrusb2-devattr.c
>>>               drivers/media/usb/pvrusb2/pvrusb2-devattr.o:(pvr2_lgdt3306a_attach) in archive vmlinux.a
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: dvb_module_release
>>> referenced by pvrusb2-devattr.c
>>>               drivers/media/usb/pvrusb2/pvrusb2-devattr.o:(pvr2_dual_fe_attach) in archive vmlinux.a

Refine the Kconfig dependencies to avoid this case.

That doesn't seem right.  The pvrusb2 module should reference that 
symbol like any other.  There is no special treatment of it within 
pvrusb2 - so why is that requiring special treatment here?

Is it possible that dvb_module_probe and dvb_module_release are not 
exported?  (Or that there are two corresponding different exported 
symbol names that pvrusb2 should be using instead?)

The problem is that VIDEO_PVRUSB2_DVB is a 'bool' symbol, not
a 'tristate', so the existing 'depends on DVB_CORE' is not sufficient.

Another way to do this would be to prevent VIDEO_PVRUSB2 from
being built-in when DVB_CORE is a module:

 config VIDEO_PVRUSB2
        tristate "Hauppauge WinTV-PVR USB2 support"
        depends on VIDEO_DEV && I2C
+       depends on DVB_CORE || !DVB_CORE
        select VIDEO_TUNER
        select VIDEO_TVEEPROM
        select VIDEO_CX2341X

but that doesn't feel right for users that don't care about DVB
support.

No.
