Oops, bad copy-paste, sorry.

Fair enough.

In this case, the problem is not the lack of the wrapper, as we already
have a

static inline void media_entity_cleanup(struct media_entity *entity) {};

helper, but the fact that struct v4l2_subdev contains a struct media_entity
as an optional member that is disabled here.  Since the argument
to media_entity_cleanup is generally this member, we could have
a wrapper around it that takes a v4l2_subdev pointer, like

static inline void media_subdev_entity_cleanup(struct v4l2_subdev* sd)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_MEDIA_CONTROLLER
      media_entity_cleanup(sd->entity);
#endif
}

which seems nicer than making the relatively large media_entity structure
visible unconditionally, or hiding its members instead.

You may also want to revisit the other drivers that have dependencies
on MEDIA_CONTROLLER then:

drivers/media/Kconfig:  depends on MEDIA_CONTROLLER && DVB_CORE
drivers/media/Kconfig:  depends on VIDEO_DEV && MEDIA_CONTROLLER
drivers/media/i2c/Kconfig:      depends on I2C && VIDEO_V4L2 && MEDIA_CONTROLLER
drivers/media/i2c/Kconfig:      depends on I2C && VIDEO_V4L2 && MEDIA_CONTROLLER
drivers/media/i2c/Kconfig:      depends on MEDIA_CONTROLLER
drivers/media/i2c/Kconfig:      depends on I2C && VIDEO_V4L2 && MEDIA_CONTROLLER
drivers/media/i2c/Kconfig:      depends on I2C && VIDEO_V4L2 && MEDIA_CONTROLLER
drivers/media/i2c/Kconfig:      depends on I2C && VIDEO_V4L2 && MEDIA_CONTROLLER
drivers/media/i2c/Kconfig:      depends on I2C && VIDEO_V4L2 && MEDIA_CONTROLLER
drivers/media/pci/intel/ipu3/Kconfig:   depends on MEDIA_CONTROLLER
drivers/media/platform/Kconfig: depends on VIDEO_V4L2 && OF &&
VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API && MEDIA_CONTROLLER
drivers/media/platform/rcar-vin/Kconfig:        depends on VIDEO_V4L2
&& VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API && OF && HAS_DMA && MEDIA_CONTROLLER
drivers/staging/media/atomisp/Kconfig:  depends on X86 && EFI &&
MEDIA_CONTROLLER && PCI && ACPI
drivers/staging/media/imx/Kconfig:      depends on MEDIA_CONTROLLER &&
VIDEO_V4L2 && ARCH_MXC && IMX_IPUV3_CORE

When you come up with a patch, I can throw it in my randconfig build
test machine
to see if that causes any unexpected build failures.

Thanks,
