Embedded systems often connect to sensors or other multimedia subdevices directly. Currently, to be able to select such a subdevice (e.g. CONFIG_VIDEO_OV5640) disabling of the auto- select config option is needed (CONFIG_MEDIA_SUBDRV_AUTOSELECT). This is inconvenient as the ancillary drivers for a particular device then need to be selected manually. Allow to select drivers manually while keeping the auto-select feature in case EXPERT (selected by EMBEDDED) is enabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
