linux-media checkout failing for KernelCI

[Gustavo Padovan <gus@collabora.com>]

Hi Media maintainers,

We are struggling to use the media tree, in the same way we usually 
virtually all other trees in KernelCI. The following commands gives 
KernelCI a fatal error.

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
cd linux
git remote add media https://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git
git remote update media
git fetch --tags https://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git
fatal: Couldn't find remote ref HEAD

We are in the process of enabling a lot of testing for media using 
fluster/gst and the ChromeOS Tast PlatformDecoder tests. I am not a git 
behavior expert, so we want to start this thread to discuss possible 
solutions as the media tree is for some reason deviating from some tacit 
standard.

Thoughts?

Best,

- Gus
