The mainline builds are done automatically by a script, not maintained
in version control, so there isn't really anywhere to apply this patch
to.

The script takes the configs for our current development kernel and
essentially runs 'yes "" | make oldconfig' to set new options to the
default values. Doing this manually I see the defaults for all the
options above as being N (the Kconfig doesn't specify any default
values).

I'll follow up with patches for kteam-tools which should get your
options (both for media and for comedi) enabled in the mainline builds.
