This seems a bit harsh, we do have another kconfig that selects this
one today:
config DRM_NOUVEAU_SVM
bool "(EXPERIMENTAL) Enable SVM (Shared Virtual Memory) support"
depends on ARCH_HAS_HMM
depends on DRM_NOUVEAU
depends on STAGING
select HMM_MIRROR
select DEVICE_PRIVATE
default n

Say Y here if you want to enable experimental support for
Shared Virtual Memory (SVM).
Maybe it should be depends on STAGING not broken?
or maybe nouveau_svm doesn't actually need DEVICE_PRIVATE?
