"ACPI/i915: build fix" is dropped, because it fixes

    drivers/built-in.o: In function `intel_opregion_init':
    (.text+0x9d540): undefined reference to `acpi_video_register'

but in defconfig, it causes:

drivers/built-in.o: In function `acpi_video_bus_put_devices':
video.c:(.text+0x411d2): undefined reference to `video_output_unregister'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `acpi_video_bus_add':
video.c:(.text+0x42c4e): undefined reference to `video_output_register'
