Faster than recompiling.
Note that restore_fbdev_mode_unlocked is a bit special and the only
one which returns an error code when fbdev isn't there - i915 needs
that one to not fall over with some additional fbcon related restore
code. Everyone else just ignores the return value or only prints a
DRM_DEBUG level message.

With the module param, and the drivers should see the following state(
based on the truth table below):
module param | config option
true | true -> real helper funcs called, driver
allocated drm_fb_helper is correctly
populated.
false | true -> real helper funcs called, but bailed
out early, driver allocated
drm_fb_helper is non-NULL, but we won't
end up using it.
Hm I tried to give drivers the same semantics here as with the stub
functions. Where did I screw up? The goal really was to match the end
result for drivers ...
Right, they would behave like the stub functions. But driver level
fbdev functions would still be called.
For example, with DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION not set, a stub
intel_fbdev_init() would be called. With DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION set but
the module param not set, the non-stub intel_fbdev_init() would still
be called, allocating an empty ifbdev. The ifbdev->helper would be
passed to the fb_helper funcs, but the module param check will bail
us out immediately.
So, the code flow isn't exactly the same as compared to when
DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION is disabled. The end result should be the same.
My only concern was whether other drivers might get confused with
a non-NULL fb_helper pointer. It most likely shouldn't be, though.

X | false -> stub functions called, drm_fb_helper is
NULL
I wonder if the 2nd combination could leave space for errors in other
drivers. Drivers tend to check whether the fb_helper struct is NULL
or not, and make decisions based on that. If the decisions are to
just call a drm_fb_helper function, then we're okay. If they do something
more than that, then we could have an issue.
I'll prepare the remainder of 'Step 2' part of the series over this,
and we can test to check if we don't hit any corner cases.
