Subject: [PATCH] drm: Remove unused code to load the non-existing fbcon.ko
Date: Wed, 18 Aug 2021 14:09:48 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210818120948.451896-1-javierm@redhat.com> (raw)
Commit 6104c37094e7 ("fbcon: Make fbcon a built-time depency for fbdev")
changed the FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE Kconfig symbol from tristate to bool.
But the drm_kms_helper_init() function still attempts to load the fbcon
module, even when this is always built-in since the mentioned change.
