Apologies, I should've added a cover letter explain this: the applespi driver is a new input driver I'm about to submit through the input tree, hence why you wouldn't have it. But as Lukas says, the change here is a prerequisite for the proposed Kconfig for that driver. Since the two changes (the change here + the new driver) seem to be best submitted through different trees, I'm trying to figure out how best to handle this. I suppose I could temporarily change the driver Kconfig to not trigger the conflict, and then once the change here has been upstreamed (not sure at what point exactly that would be considered the case, e.g. if in linux-next is sufficient, or has to wait for Linus' merge, or something else) submit another change to change the driver's Kconfig to the desired one. > > >>>> --- > > >>>> drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/Kconfig | 2 +- > > >>>> 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) > > >>>> > > >>>> diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/Kconfig b/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/Kconfig > > >>>> index 2fee47b0d50b..eabedc83f25c 100644 > > >>>> --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/Kconfig > > >>>> +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/Kconfig > > >>>> @@ -83,9 +83,9 @@ config DRM_PARADE_PS8622 > > >>>> config DRM_SIL_SII8620 > > >>>> tristate "Silicon Image SII8620 HDMI/MHL bridge" > > >>>> depends on OF > > >>>> + depends on INPUT > > >>>> select DRM_KMS_HELPER > > >>>> imply EXTCON > > >>>> - select INPUT > > >>>> select RC_CORE > > >> > > >> Keeping "select RC_CORE" is wrong though, as the driver appears to be > > >> working find without RC.

Ok, I'll submit a new patch shortly for this. However, other than compiling with RC_CORE and INPUT set/unset I can't test the changes to the sil-sii8620 driver.
