Well, media-ctl uses a local copy of the videodev2.h header, so it won't
break.
I'm not aware of any other application using MC for DVB.
Yet, imagining that such application exists, then, IMHO, it is better
to break compilation for it, as probably such application was written for
some OOT driver that might be using its own version of the media
controller implementation.
