CONFIG_DRM_HDLCD is a tristate option that depends on the boolean
CONFIG_DRM_ARM, which in turn depends on the tristate CONFIG_DRM.
The effect of this is that a configuration with CONFIG_DRM=m
and CONFIG_DRM_HDLCD=y can be chosen, but won't link because the
DRM core symbols are not reachable from builtin code:

drivers/built-in.o: In function `hdlcd_drm_unbind':
drivers/gpu/drm/arm/hdlcd_drv.c:445: undefined reference to `drm_fbdev_cma_fini'
drivers/gpu/drm/arm/hdlcd_drv.c:448: undefined reference to `drm_kms_helper_poll_fini'
drivers/gpu/drm/arm/hdlcd_drv.c:450: undefined reference to `drm_vblank_cleanup'
drivers/gpu/drm/arm/hdlcd_drv.c:452: undefined reference to `drm_irq_uninstall'
drivers/gpu/drm/arm/hdlcd_drv.c:460: undefined reference to `drm_mode_config_cleanup'
drivers/gpu/drm/arm/hdlcd_drv.c:461: undefined reference to `drm_dev_unregister'
drivers/gpu/drm/arm/hdlcd_drv.c:462: undefined reference to `drm_dev_unref'
...

This adds another dependency on CONFIG_DRM to enforce that DRM_HDLCD
cannot be builtin if DRM is not.

Ok, I found yet another one after a few hundred extra randconfig builds
on today's next. Let me know if you'd rather have the three Kconfig
changes combined into a single patch, it's starting to get ridiculous.

Ugh... wouldn't it be much simpler to get rid of DRM_ARM? It seems like
a completely superfluous option to me. I don't think we've ever had the
equivalent of "vendor" Kconfig options in DRM, and I don't see why we'd
need to start now. If ARM was going to add another driver it can simply
have a separate Kconfig entry. There should be no need to select the
vendor option first.

Arnd,

I'm OK with the whole series of Kconfig clean-up/fixes and I offer my appologies
for adding noise with my patchset. Please let me know how do you prefer to handle
them. I'm OK with merging your changes into my series before sending the pull
request to David Airlie.

Best regards,
Liviu

Please merge them into your tree if you have some other changes to send to him.

I just realized that these are in your own git tree at the moment, not
in drm-next. I guess that means you will rebase the whole series after -rc1 and
submit it into linux-4.6, right?

If so, just fold my fixes into your patches when you rebase.
