Mauro Carvalho Chehab 9958d30f38 media: Kconfig: cleanup VIDEO_DEV dependencies
media Kconfig has two entries associated to V4L API:
VIDEO_DEV and VIDEO_V4L2.

On Kernel 2.6.x, there were two V4L APIs, each one with its own flag.
VIDEO_DEV were meant to:
	1) enable Video4Linux and make its Kconfig options to appear;
	2) it makes the Kernel build the V4L core.

while VIDEO_V4L2 where used to distinguish between drivers that
implement the newer API and drivers that implemented the former one.

With time, such meaning changed, specially after the removal of
all V4L version 1 drivers.

At the current implementation, VIDEO_DEV only does (1): it enables
the media options related to V4L, that now has:

	menu "Video4Linux options"
		visible if VIDEO_DEV

	source "drivers/media/v4l2-core/Kconfig"
	endmenu

but it doesn't affect anymore the V4L core drivers.

The rationale is that the V4L2 core has a "soft" dependency
at the I2C bus, and now requires to select a number of other
Kconfig options:

	config VIDEO_V4L2
		tristate
		depends on (I2C || I2C=n) && VIDEO_DEV
		select RATIONAL
		select VIDEOBUF2_V4L2 if VIDEOBUF2_CORE
		default (I2C || I2C=n) && VIDEO_DEV

In the past, merging them would be tricky, but it seems that it is now
possible to merge those symbols, in order to simplify V4L dependencies.

Let's keep VIDEO_DEV, as this one is used on some make *defconfig
configurations.

Enables a virtual video driver. This driver emulates a webcam,
TV, S-Video and HDMI capture hardware, including VBI support for
the SDTV inputs. Also video output, VBI output, radio receivers,
transmitters and software defined radio capture is emulated.
It is highly configurable and is ideal for testing applications.
Error injection is supported to test rare errors that are hard
to reproduce in real hardware.
Say Y here if you want to test video apps or debug V4L devices.
When in doubt, say N.
config VIDEO_VIVID_CEC

When selected the vivid module will emulate the optional
HDMI CEC feature.
config VIDEO_VIVID_MAX_DEVS
int "Maximum number of devices"

default "64"
help
This allows you to specify the maximum number of devices supported
by the vivid driver.
