Subject: Properly handle tristate dependencies on USB/PCI menus

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5077ac3b8108007f4a2b4589f2d373cf55453206 upstream.

As USB/PCI/MEDIA_SUPPORT dependencies can be tristate, we can't
simply make the bool menu to be dependent on it. Everything below
the menu should also depend on it, otherwise, we risk to allow
building them with 'y', while only 'm' would be supported.

So, add an IF just before everything below, in order to avoid
such risks.
