drm/bridge-connector: select DRM_DISPLAY_HELPER from DRM_BRIDGE_CONNECTOR

[PATCH] drm/bridge-connector: select DRM_DISPLAY_HELPER from DRM_BRIDGE_CONNECTOR

Posted by Arnd Bergmann 1 month, 1 week ago

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The imx display drivers use the new bridge connector helpers but don't
explicitly select CONFIG_DRM_DISPLAY_HELPER, leading to a link failure
in rare configurations:

ld.lld-20: error: undefined symbol: drm_bridge_connector_init
>>> referenced by imx-ldb.c
>>>               drivers/gpu/drm/imx/ipuv3/imx-ldb.o:(imx_ldb_bind) in archive vmlinux.a
>>> referenced by parallel-display.c
>>>               drivers/gpu/drm/imx/ipuv3/parallel-display.o:(imx_pd_bind) in archive vmlinux.a

Move DRM_BRIDGE_CONNECTOR out of the DRM_DISPLAY_HELPER block and
instead select that symbol indirectly.

Fixes: f94b9707a1c9 ("drm/imx: parallel-display: switch to imx_legacy_bridge / drm_bridge_connector")

I think a correct fix is to select DRM_DISPLAY_HELPER instead.
