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.
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?
