The commit c242f48433e7 ("drm: Make FB_CORE to be selected if DRM fbdev emulation is enabled") changed DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION from 'depends on FB' to an effective 'select FB_CORE', so any config that previously had DRM=y and FB=n now has FB_CORE=y and FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y. This leads to unmet direct dependencies detected for FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE as reported by Arthur Grillo, e.g: WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE Depends on [n]: VT [=n] && FB_CORE [=y] && !UML [=y] Selected by [y]: - DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION [=y] && HAS_IOMEM [=y] && DRM [=y] && !EXPERT [=n] Arnd Bergmann suggests to drop the select FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE for the DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION Kconfig symbol, since a possible use case could be to enable DRM fbdev emulation but without a framebuffer console.
