Yes, and declared on two different places:

drivers/gpu/drm/omapdrm/dss/omapdss.h:void omapdss_unregister_display(struct omap_dss_device *dssdev);
include/video/omapfb_dss.h:void omapdss_unregister_display(struct omap_dss_device *dssdev);

one alternative would be to give different names to it, and a common
header for both.

At such header, it could be doing something like:

static inline void omapdss_unregister_display(struct omap_dss_device *dssdev)
{
#if enabled(CONFIG_DRM_OMAP)
	omapdss_unregister_display_drm(struct omap_dss_device *dssdev);
#else
	omapdss_unregister_display_fb(struct omap_dss_device *dssdev);
##endif
}

Yet, after a very quick check, it seems that nowadays only the
media omap driver uses the symbols at FB_OMAP:

$ git grep omapfb_dss.h
drivers/media/platform/omap/omap_vout.c:#include <video/omapfb_dss.h>
drivers/media/platform/omap/omap_voutdef.h:#include <video/omapfb_dss.h>
drivers/media/platform/omap/omap_voutlib.c:#include <video/omapfb_dss.h>

So, perhaps just renaming the common symbols and changing FB_OMAP2 to:

	menuconfig FB_OMAP2
	         tristate "OMAP2+ frame buffer support"
	         depends on FB
	         depends on (DRM_OMAP = n) || COMPILE_TEST

would be enough to allow to build both on ARM.
