Hi Shuah,
Some comments at the end. I suspect you still have to do more work :-(

I am still getting sparse warnings:
drivers/media/media-dev-allocator.c /home/hans/work/build/media-git/drivers/media/media-dev-allocator.c:94:21: warning: symbol 'media_device_usb_allocate' was not declared. Should it be static?
drivers/media/media-dev-allocator.c /home/hans/work/build/media-git/drivers/media/media-dev-allocator.c:120:6: warning: symbol 'media_device_delete' was not declared. Should it be static?
drivers/media/media-dev-allocator.c:94:22: warning: no previous prototype for 'media_device_usb_allocate' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
drivers/media/media-dev-allocator.c:120:6: warning: no previous prototype for 'media_device_delete' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
This makes sense since if the #if above evaluates to 0, then the
static inlines are used. But in media-dev-allocator.c these functions
are still present without a corresponding prototype.
You likely need a similar #if in media-dev-allocator.c.
Have you tested this if CONFIG_MODULES is not set? Does au0828 still work
w.r.t. sharing the shared resource? Has the driver been tested when MEDIA_CONTROLLER
is not set? Should au0828 select MEDIA_CONTROLLER explicitly perhaps?
My main concern is that it looks like au0828's probe() will now fail if MODULES is
not set.
Regards,
Hans
