The correct fix for it seems to change the Kconfig menu to be like:

<m> Multimedia support  --->
   [ ]   Webcams and video grabbers support
   [ ]   Analog TV API and drivers support
   [ ]   Digital TV support
   [ ]   AM/FM radio receivers/transmitters support
   [ ]   Remote Controller support

and only select the tuner-core drivers if analog TV is selected.

I'll write some RFC patches for it for 3.6, posting them at linux-media.

Mauro
