Currently display support for omap2 is selected by default and

Instead of it being a built-in feature, it's compilation should
depend on the config option CONFIG_FB_OMAP2.

No, I don't think so. omap2 directory contains vram, vrfb and omapdss,
all of which can be used without omapfb driver. vram and vrfb can be
even used without omapdss driver.
Even if I build the kernel with i386_defconfig, I get some compiled files within drivers/video/omap2.

$ make ARCH=x86 i386_defconfig O=out_dir
$ make ARCH=x86 O=out_dir

$ ls out_dir/drivers/video/omap2
built-in.o  displays  modules.builtin  modules.order

IMHO, drivers/video/omap2/ should not be compiled if the kernel is not built for omap2.

Is this patch fixing some real problem?
This patch does not fix any other problem.
