Yeah. I noticed media controller api users have the code in ifdef
CONFIG_MEDIA_CONTROLLER.

I agree with you that a better way to do it would be defining media
controller api in ifdef CONFIG_MEDIA_CONTROLLER and provide stubs for
else case, similar to what I did in sound/usb/media.c

I followed the existing code to add new interfaces. Do you want to see
all media controller interfaces in ifdef clause with stubs or just the
two new interfaces I added? Or is this something that should be done as
a separate change to catch all media controller interfaces?
