The frame buffer core may be a loadable module, and in this
case, the nuc900 driver cannot be built-in. Turning it into
a tristate option lets Kconfig work out the dependency and
avoid broken builds.

You should take Wan ZongShun, the nuc900 maintainer on Cc.
Again, this is slightly non-obvious because get_maintainer.pl
doesn't find him because of the move, and because the platform
is called w90x900 in the MAINTAINERS file.

On a side-node, someone should do a patch that fixes up the
MAINTAINERS file to reflect the move of all the drivers/video/*
files to drivers/video/fbdev/*.
