When DRM_CHIPONE_ICN6211 is selected, and DRM_KMS_HELPER is not selected,
Kbuild gives the following warning:
WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for DRM_PANEL_BRIDGE
Depends on [n]: HAS_IOMEM [=y] && DRM_BRIDGE [=y] && DRM_KMS_HELPER [=n]
Selected by [y]:
- DRM_CHIPONE_ICN6211 [=y] && HAS_IOMEM [=y] && DRM [=y] && DRM_BRIDGE [=y] && OF [=y]
This is because DRM_CHIPONE_ICN6211 selects DRM_PANEL_BRIDGE
without depending on or selecting DRM_KMS_HELPER,
despite DRM_PANEL_BRIDGE depending on DRM_KMS_HELPER.
This unmet dependency bug was detected by Kismet,
a static analysis tool for Kconfig.
Please advise if this is not the appropriate solution.

Hi Julian,
Thank you for the patch.

Shouldn't DRM_PANEL_BRIDGE select DRM_KMS_HELPER instead of depending on
it ?

Hi Laurent,
Either a "select" or a "depends" will resolve this issue, but
most similar devices in this Kconfig file select DRM_KMS_HELPER.
Is there something different about DRM_CHIPONE_ICN6211 that I have missed?

Mixing "select" and "depends" usually lead to be results. DRM_KMS_HELPER
is a symbol that is mostly selected (I think there are a handful of
occurrences of "depends", which should probably be fixed).

There isn't anything fundamentally different, but because DRM_KMS_HELPER
is meant to be selected and not depended on, I think we should fix that
for DRM_PANEL_BRIDGE, and it will fix the issue with
DRM_CHIPONE_ICN6211. The dependency on the KMS helpers come from
drm_panel_bridge.c, not from chipone-icn6211.c as far as I can tell, so
it would also be more correct.
