Hi,

On an ubuntu system the code builds ok but not all modules run properly;
the issue I noticed was the cx23885 module gave these errors when loaded:

[   20.395552] cx23885: disagrees about version of symbol altera_init
[   20.395560] cx23885: Unknown symbol altera_init (err -22)

The cause was that there were two altera-stapl modules in the /lib tree

% find .-type f -name "altera_stapl.ko"
 ./kernel/drivers/misc/altera-stapl/altera-stapl.ko
 ./kernel/drivers/linux/drivers/misc/altera-stapl/altera-stapl.ko

I traced that back to make_makefile.pl; it was not using the right
directory names for any drivers in drivers/misc or drivers/staging.
For example before the patch this line was being generated:

 n=0;for i in altera-stapl.ko;do if [ -f "$i" ]; then if [ $n -eq 0 ]; then echo -n "    ../linux/drivers/misc/altera-stapl/: "; install -d /lib/modules/3.13.0-35-generic/kernel/drivers/media/../linux/drivers/misc/altera-stapl; fi; n=$(($n+1)); if [  $n -eq 4 ]; then echo; echo -n "              "; n=1; fi; echo -n "$i "; install -m 644 -c $i /lib/modules/3.13.0-35-generic/kernel/drivers/media/../linux/drivers/misc/altera-stapl; fi; done; if [  $n -ne 0 ]; then echo; strip --strip-debug /lib/modules/3.13.0-35-generic/kernel/drivers/media/../linux/drivers/misc/altera-stapl/*.ko; fi;


after applying this patch the same line is:

 n=0;for i in altera-stapl.ko;do if [ -f "$i" ]; then if [ $n -eq 0 ]; then echo -n "    ../misc/altera-stapl/: "; install -d /lib/modules/3.13.0-35-generic/kernel/drivers/media/../misc/altera-stapl; fi; n=$(($n+1)); if [  $n -eq 4 ]; then echo; echo -n "          "; n=1; fi; echo -n "$i "; install -m 644 -c $i /lib/modules/3.13.0-35-generic/kernel/drivers/media/../misc/altera-stapl; fi; done; if [  $n -ne 0 ]; then echo; strip --strip-debug /lib/modules/3.13.0-35-generic/kernel/drivers/media/../misc/altera-stapl/*.ko; fi;

This also affects drivers in staging.

The patch is below.

[patch] ensure correct install of modules from drivers/{misc,staging}

v4l/scripts/make_mediafile.pl uses the %instdir hash to collate a list
of directories in media_build/linux which contain Makefiles; it uses
this data when constructing a dependency for the Makefile.media target.
It also uses this hash to collate all the individual module names and
generate code which installs the individual modules.
But it gets the installation directory wrong in the case of modules
outside the linux/drivers/media tree.

To fix, do the collation of source locations and conversion into install
locations as separate steps.
