The patches to change DRM_TEGRA to tristate are part of what is queued for 3.14. While I agree that having allmodconfig working is a worthwhile goal in itself for build testing, I'm not sure it warrants a patch this late in the release cycle that will cause conflicts during the merge window. It also seems like there are other issues that prevent allmodconfig to build successfully on ARM not all of them being as easy to fix as this one. Thierry
