The current toplevel menu item for vc04-services has this description:
Kernel to VideoCore communication interface for the
BCM2835 family of products.
Defaults to Y when the Broadcom Videocore services
are included in the build, N otherwise.
1. This isn't quite how things work today. Videocore is always included.
2. It's confusing and I don't believe anything about the brand VideoCore
is specific to the BCM2835.
So what this patch set does is change the toplevel of the menu to be:
menuconfig VIDEOCORE
bool "Broadcom VideoCore support"
depends on HAS_DMA
depends on RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE || (COMPILE_TEST && !RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWAR
E)
default y
help
Support for Broadcom VideoCore services including
the BCM2835 family of products which is used
by the Raspberry PI.
This makes it clear that VideoCore is a general set of Broadcom
services that may not be exclusive to the BCM2835.
Also, I have kept the BCM2835_VCHIQ config, but changed it to a
simple config rather then a menuconfig.
Finally, I have changed the camera and the audio to select rather
then depend on BCM2835_VCHIQ. This allows BCM2835_VCHIQ to be changed
to say a module independenly, but yet the menu still works just like
the original description says that it should. It is forced in if any
of the specific VideoCore services(like camera) are enabled.

staging: vc04_services: Create new CONFIG_VIDEOCORE setting for
VideoCore services.
staging: bcm2835-audio: select BCM2835_VCHIQ rather then depending on
it.
staging: bcm2835-camera: select BCM2835_VCHIQ rather then depending on
it.
