9b174527e7 [media] Add and use IS_REACHABLE macro
In the media drivers, the v4l2 core knows about all submodules
and calls into them from a common function. However this cannot
work if the modules that get called are loadable and the
core is built-in. In that case we get

drivers/built-in.o: In function `set_type':
drivers/media/v4l2-core/tuner-core.c:301: undefined reference to `tea5767_attach'
drivers/media/v4l2-core/tuner-core.c:307: undefined reference to `tea5761_attach'
drivers/media/v4l2-core/tuner-core.c:349: undefined reference to `tda9887_attach'
drivers/media/v4l2-core/tuner-core.c:405: undefined reference to `xc4000_attach'

This was working previously, until the IS_ENABLED() macro was used
to replace the construct like

 #if defined(CONFIG_DVB_CX24110) || (defined(CONFIG_DVB_CX24110_MODULE) && defined(MODULE))

with the difference that the new code no longer checks whether it is being
built as a loadable module itself.

To fix this, this new patch adds an 'IS_REACHABLE' macro, which evaluates
true in exactly the condition that was used previously. The downside
of this is that this trades an obvious link error for a more subtle
runtime failure, but it is clear that the change that introduced the
link error was unintentional and it seems better to revert it for
now. Also, a similar change was originally created by Trent Piepho
and then reverted by teh change to the IS_ENABLED macro.

Ideally Kconfig would be used to avoid the case of a broken dependency,
or the code restructured in a way to turn around the dependency, but either
way would require much larger changes here.

7b34be71db [media] use IS_ENABLED() macro
This patch introduces the use of IS_ENABLED() macro. For example,
replacing:
 #if defined(CONFIG_I2C) || (defined(CONFIG_I2C_MODULE) && defined(MODULE))
with:
 #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_I2C)
All changes made by this patch respect the same replacement pattern.

9a0bf528b4 [media] move the dvb/frontends to drivers/media/dvb-frontends
Raise the DVB frontends one level up, as the intention is to remove
the drivers/media/dvb directory.
