According to the TODO file, this driver only landed in staging because of the way device nodes and data transfers are handled. Besides that this way (use of secX devices) has become sort of standard to date (ie. VDR supports this literally since ages via the ddci plugin, TVHeadend received this functionality lately, and minisatip being currently worked on regarding this), most importantly this I2C client only driver isn't even responsible for setting up device nodes, not for handling data transfer and so on, but only serves as interface for the dvb_ca_en50221 subsystem, just like every other DVB card out in the wild, with hard-wired or such flexible CA interfaces. And, it would even work with cards having the cxd2099 controller hard-wired. Also, this driver received quite some love and even is a proper I2C client driver by now. So, as this driver acts as a EN50221 frontend device, move it to dvb-frontends. There is no need to keep it buried in staging. This commit also updates all affected Kconfig and Makefile's, and adds MEDIA_AUTOSELECT depends to ddbridge and ngene.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
