[PATCH] [media] staging: allow omap4iss to be modular

The OMAP4 camera support depends on I2C and VIDEO_V4L2, both
of which can be loadable modules. This causes build failures
if we want the camera driver to be built-in.

This can be solved by turning the option into "tristate",
which unfortunately causes another problem, because the
driver incorrectly calls a platform-internal interface
for omap4_ctrl_pad_readl/omap4_ctrl_pad_writel.
To work around that, we can export those symbols, but
that isn't really the correct solution, as we should not
have dependencies on platform code this way.

This is one of just two patches we currently need to get
'make allmodconfig' to build again on ARM.

This was discussed in detail here:

Direct dependency from a staging driver to mach-omap2 driver is not
something we'd like, right?
