nope, just do "select EXTCON" . It works nicely and the above would
not select EXTCON at all if the the rockchip-drm driver gets built into
the kernel.

To be sure I just did a little experiment and added:

diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/Kconfig b/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/Kconfig
index 4ad85c046dcd..64e2b096afd8 100644
--- a/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/Kconfig
+++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/Kconfig
@@ -154,4 +154,11 @@ source "drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/ite/Kconfig"
 
 source "drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/synopsys/Kconfig"
 
+config DRM_TMP1
+       tristate "option to select"
+
+config DRM_TMP2
+       tristate "option doing the selecting"
+       select DRM_TMP1
+

If I select DRM_TMP2=m as module I end up with
CONFIG_DRM_TMP1=m
CONFIG_DRM_TMP2=m
in the defconfig and wit DRM_TMP2=y it changes to
CONFIG_DRM_TMP1=y
CONFIG_DRM_TMP2=y

so all is well with just doing "select EXTCON" above and will
select the correct "m" or "y" stance as needed.
