Subject: drm: Reject page_flip for !DRIVER_MODESET
From: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx>
commit 6f00975c619064a18c23fd3aced325ae165a73b9 upstream.
Somehow this one slipped through, which means drivers without modeset
support can be oopsed (since those also don't call
drm_mode_config_init, which means the crtc lookup will chase an
uninitalized idr).
