I'm not 100% sure whether CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO=m can be put there as
conditional inside CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO definition.  Maybe a safer
form would be like:

config SND_USB_AUDIO_USE_MEDIA_CONTROLLER
	bool
	default y
	depends on SND_USB_AUDIO
	depends on MEDIA_CONTROLLER
	depends on (MEDIA_SUPPORT=y || MEDIA_SUPPORT=SND_USB_AUDIO)

and drop select from SND_USB_AUDIO.

OK, understood.
