All DVB devices should start with DVB_.

Don't use "default". You shouldn't assume that most of the kernel users are interested
on this module.

As already discussed, the driver should be kept modular. So, the note above
doesn't apply.

What kind of support the driver will provide without USB ?

I suspect that you are wanting to have several bus options like for example USB
and MMC. Since, without a bus, the core module makes no sense to be compiled,
you should, instead, use a different Kbuild struct. Something something like:


comment "Siano devices"

config DVB_SIANO_MDTV
	tristate
	default n

config DVB_SIANO_USB
	tristate "USB bus support for Siano devices"
	depends on DVB_CORE && USB
	select DVB_SIANO_MDTV
 	---help---
	  Choose if you would like to have Siano's support for USB interface

config DVB_SIANO_MMC
	tristate "MMC bus support for Siano devices"
	depends on DVB_CORE && USB
	select DVB_SIANO_MDTV
 	---help---
	  Choose if you would like to have Siano's support for MMC interface

<other bus options here>

With the above syntax, the core module will be built only if at least one of the
supported bus is selected.



Cheers,
Mauro
