Hi Guenter,

I think this should be fixed in latest next, where it is now possible to
build the Tegra DRM driver as a module. All needed host1x symbols are
exported as well.

One thing that strikes me as odd, though, is that I've always thought
Kconfig would warn if a symbol selected as =y depended on a symbol
selected as =m, precisely because of what you describe above. menuconfig
complains about it pretty loudly as well.

Oh, but I see that if I change DRM_TEGRA back to be bool, then Kconfig
doesn't complain anymore, even if DRM_TEGRA=y and DRM=m. Should that
perhaps be considered a bug?
