This was only added for the drm's fbdev emulation support, so that it would try harder to show the Oops.
Unfortunately this never really worked reliably, and in practice ended up pushing the real Oops off the screen due to plentyfull locking, sleep-while-atomic and other issues. So we removed all that support from the fbdev emulation a while back. Aside: We've also removed the kgdb support, for similar reasons.
Since it's such a small patch I figured I don't split this up into the usual 3-phase removal.
