Dependency bug in the uvcvideo Kconfig

There seems to be a dependency bug in the Kconfig for the uvcvideo kernel 
module.  If uvcvideo is built in and usb support is built as a module, the 
kernel build will fail with the obviously missing dependanies.

Compiling uvc as a module allows the compilation to complete.
