Ok, got it. I think your 0c756134cf76 ("drm: Protect fb_defio in
drivers with CONFIG_KMS_FBDEV_EMULATION") is actually sufficient
for the build break, it's almost the same as my patch anyway.
Alternatively, reverting c0f0c177b5a9 ("drm/udl: make fbdev
support really optional") for v4.8 would work too.
