Hi,
this breaks build on openSUSE's armv7hl config:
$ wget -O .config
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openSUSE/kernel-source/stable/config/armv7hl/default
$ make -j168 CROSS_COMPILE=arm-suse-linux-gnueabi- ARCH=arm vmlinux
...
LD .tmp_vmlinux.btf
arm-suse-linux-gnueabi-ld: drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-simple.o: in
function `panel_simple_probe':
drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-simple.c:803: undefined reference to
`drm_panel_dp_aux_backlight'
$ grep -E 'CONFIG_(DRM|FB|DRM_KMS_HELPER|DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION)\>' .config
CONFIG_DRM=y
CONFIG_DRM_KMS_HELPER=m
CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION=y
CONFIG_FB=y
5.16-rc1 builds just fine -- investigating why…
