This is another bogus warning.
The MEDIA_foo_SUPPORT actually controls what drivers are visible,
but it doesn't enable any driver. They just control the visibility
of the drivers, and the APIs that will be enabled (V4L2 and/or DVB).
The aim of MEDIA_foo_SUPPORT is to make life easier to end users,
making easier for them to filter the drivers that they may need.
If one selects MEDIA_VIDEO_SUPPORT, the V4L2 API (and V4L core) will be
enabled, and all drivers that support a camera should appear at the
menu, including drivers that *also* support other features (like TV
and/or stream support).
That's the case of go7007.
That has nothing to do with the features selection for such driver.
Once go7007 driver is selected, if MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT, all
i2c drivers that cope together with go7007 are selected, making the
driver to fully support all devices it knows.
Advanced users may unselect MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT and add there just
the I2C driver(s) it needs for his specific hardware.
Despite the warning, the Kconfig will do the right thing, not
allowing invalid configurations.
