To avoid dealing with this again I would prefer skipping per-driver Kconfig options entirely, for instance something like this: [PATCH/RFC] Simplify Gen3 DU and VSP Kconfig bits https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sh/msg45978.html >> static inline void rcar_du_vsp_enable(struct rcar_du_crtc *crtc) { }; >> static inline void rcar_du_vsp_disable(struct rcar_du_crtc *crtc) { }; >> static inline void rcar_du_vsp_atomic_begin(struct rcar_du_crtc *crtc) { }; > > Alternatively, DRM_RCAR_DU can force DRM_RCAR_VSP to y if ARCH_R8A7795 > or ARCH_R8A7796 is enabled. The DU driver has symbol dependencies on VSP and FCP driver code (V4L2), so we need to take the state of driver support for those modules into consideration as well instead of only depending on SoC-specific Kconfig symbols.

It seems that I was using renesas-drivers-2016-10-18-v4.9-rc1 - not mainline v4.9-rc1. Without this fix the driver still crashes, but not due to defconfig in v4.9-rc1. Thanks, / magnus
