drm/i915: select framebuffer support automatically
Migration helper. The i915 driver recently added a 'depends on FB' rule to its Kconfig entry - which silently turns off DRM_I915 if someone has a working config but no CONFIG_FB selected, and upgrades to the latest upstream kernel. Norbert Preining reported this problem: Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12599 Subject : dri /dev node disappeared with 2.6.29-rc1 So change it to "select FB", which auto-selects framebuffer support. This way the driver keeps working, regardless of whether FB was enabled before or not. Kconfig select's of interactive options can be problematic to dependencies and can cause build breakages - but in this case it's safe because it's a leaf entry with no dependencies of its own. ( There is some minor circular dependency fallout as FB_I810 and FB_INTEL also used 'depends on FB' constructs - update those to "select FB" too. ) Reported-by: Norbert Preining <preining@logic.at> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@linux.ie>
