This patch here breaks the build:

  CC [M]  drivers/staging/media/hantro/hantro_drv.o
/home/zeta/repos/linux/media_tree/drivers/staging/media/hantro/hantro_drv.c: In function ‘hantro_ctrls_setup’:
/home/zeta/repos/linux/media_tree/drivers/staging/media/hantro/hantro_drv.c:319:23: error: assignment of member ‘id’ in read-only object
    controls[i].cfg.id = controls[i].id;
                       ^
You can fix it by simply moving it after:

[PATCH 4/9] media: hantro: Simplify the controls creation logic
