drivers/staging/tm6000/Kconfig:

config VIDEO_TM6000_DVB
	bool "DVB Support for tm6000 based TV cards"
	depends on VIDEO_TM6000 && DVB_CORE && EXPERIMENTAL
	select DVB_ZL10353
	---help---
	  This adds support for DVB cards based on the tm5600/tm6000 chip.


Using a bool here when DVB_CORE=m converts a modular dependency to a =y one.
IOW, it can cause problems unless the code is ready to deal with it,
but it looks like tm6000 is not fully ready for that:
