Hi Thomas,

Only TTM-based drivers use fbdev-generic. Rename it to fbdev-ttm and
change the symbol infix from _generic_ to _ttm_. Link the source file
into TTM helpers, so that it is only build if TTM-based drivers have
been selected. Select DRM_TTM_HELPER for loongson.

I recently noticed that with Linux v6.11 it is possible to enable
CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION without enabling CONFIG_DRM_TTM_HELPER. Now
while this does not currently cause any build issues, I believe that if
the function drm_fbdev_ttm_setup() is ever used somewhere that does not
explicitly select CONFIG_DRM_TTM_HELPER, then you could get a 'ERROR:
modpost: "drm_fbdev_ttm_setup"'.

So I was thinking that may be this should be ...

The above function has been removed now in -next, but I believe we could
have the same problem with drm_fbdev_ttm_helper_fb_probe()?

We'd turn a linker/modpost error into a compiler error. Likely makes no difference. And AFAICT every driver that selects TTM also selects TTM_HELPER. Drivers without TTM should not use this header.


Yes I also noted that all the current drivers select TTM_HELPER and so we don't run into this. However, it still seems a bit odd that we don't expose a proper stub if TTM_HELPER is disabled (especially seeing as there is a stub defined).
