V4L/DVB (6508): ttpci: Rework Kconfig menus and Makefile
The ttpci Kconfig file has bugs that cause it to fail in certain Kconfig situations. The basic problem is that it selects certain drivers, but does not depend on the dependencies of those drivers. See http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.video4linux/35072 Using the Kconfig file also has some annoyances. For instance one can't turn off AV7110 support unless you go down several options and first turn off budget-patch support. Normally user selectable drivers are not forced on like this. The "AV7110 cards with Budget Patch" option is disabled if "Budget cards" isn't on. Normally a driver appears nested under a driver it depends on, but since drivers that don't depend on "Budget cards" are between the two options, the config programs can't display the tree correctly. The Makefile has an issue too. Some modules, ttpci-eeprom and budget-core, appear in the Makefile under several different config symbols. If more than one of these symbols is on, they will get added the to list of objects multiple times. The normal convention is to have a config symbol just the common object(s) and have the users of the that object either depend on or select that config symbol. This patch fixes all these issues. ttpci-eepom is under a new config symbol, and so is the budget-core module. The four different budget card types appear as sub-drivers under a main "SAA7146 DVB cards" option. Turning on budget-patch doesn't force AV7110. Drivers using SAA7146_VV have the necessary VIDEO_DEV dependency, so that it isn't possible to select SAA7146_VV without V4L being on.
