Dear Silverstri,

I am not sure for which platform you are compiling Kernel.

But for X86(_64) and ARM, CONFIG_VIDEOBUF2_CORE will be selected as a
module (will not build into kernel image static), this is the dependency
VIDEOBUF2_DMA_CONTIG [=m] && MEDIA_SUPPORT [=m] && HAS_DMA [=y] ||
VIDEOBUF2_VMALLOC [=m] && MEDIA_SUPPORT [=m] || VIDEOBUF2_DMA_SG [=n] &&
MEDIA_SUPPORT [=m] || SOC_CAMERA [=m] && MEDIA_SUPPORT [=m] &&
V4L_PLATFORM_DRIVERS [=y] && VIDEO_V4L2 [=m] && HAS_DMA [=y] && I2C [=y].

select MEDIA_SUPPORT and SOC_CAMERA to build into kernel image static (when
you select one of MEDIA_SUPPORT/SOC_CAMERA/VIDEO_V4L2 as build static into
kernel, .config will have  CONFIG_VIDEOBUF2_CORE=y instead of
CONFIG_VIDEOBUF2_CORE=m)

For ARM board I used Device Drivers->Multimedia Support (make this to build
into kernel instead of static)->V4L platform devices (make this to build
into kernel instead of static)->Soc Camera Support(make this to build into
kernel instead of static).
