Hey,

  config DRM_I915_UNSTABLE
	  bool "Enable unstable API for early prototype development"
	  depends on EXPERT
	  depends on STAGING
	  depends on BROKEN # should never be enabled by distros!

  config DRM_I915_UNSTABLE_FAKE_LMEM
	  bool "Enable the experimental fake lmem"
	  depends on DRM_I915_UNSTABLE

AFAIU because of that dependency on CONFIG_BROKEN we cannot just enable
it through .config - we have to edit the value in init/Kconfig[0].

Please push that change to core-for-CI (or other branch that gets
integrated into drm-tip) and then just send a merge request to the
kernel configs the CI is using[1].
