The problem is that v4l2_subdev_get_try_*() needs a v4l2_subdev_fh which
you don't have if CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API is not defined. So I don't
see how removing the guards help with that.

What can be done is that if CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API is not defined,
then these functions return NULL.

BTW, one patch I will very happily accept is one where the __V4L2_SUBDEV_MK_GET_TRY
is removed and these three try functions are just written as proper
static inlines. I find it very obfuscated code.

In addition, because it is a macro you won't find the function definitions
if you grep on the function name.

But any functional changes here need to be Acked by Laurent first.
