Looking at the media Kconfig again, this would be broken if
MEDIA_SUPPORT=m and SND_USB_AUDIO=y.  The ugly workaround is something
like:
	select SND_USB_AUDIO_USE_MEDIA_CONTROLLER \
		if MEDIA_CONTROLLER && (MEDIA_SUPPORT=y || MEDIA_SUPPORT=SND)

Other than that, it looks more or less OK to me.
The way how media_stream_init() gets called is a bit worrisome, but it
should work practically.  Another concern is about the disconnection.
Can all function calls in media_device_delete() be safe even if it's
called while the application still opens the MC device?

In anyway, such a thing can be improved later once after we get this
merged, too.  So, feel fee to take my ack.
