Paging in Arnd on this one, as he builds a lot of next kernels and randconfigs.

All warnings (new ones prefixed by >>):
warning: (DRM_STM && DRM_VC4 && DRM_PL111 && DRM_TVE200 && DRM_LVDS_ENCODER && DRM_DW_MIPI_DSI) selects DRM_PANEL_BRIDGE which has unmet direct dependencies (HAS_IOMEM && DRM_BRIDGE && DRM_KMS_HELPER)
I have a real hard time deciphering this Kconfig problem.
Can someone help?
What I see it that DTM_STM, DRM_VC4, DRM_PL111, DRM_TVE200 and DRM_DW_MIPI_DSI all select DRM_PANEL_BRIDGE and DRM_KMS_HELPER.
DRM_LVDS_ENCODER select DRM_PANEL_BRIDGE
So they seem to select what they need.
HAS_IOMEM must be the real culprit, and it is not set in the .config attached.
So is the real problem that the bot is compiling a config without HAS_IOMEM and we should put a depends on HAS_IOMEM somewhere?
This HAS_IOMEM business keep annoying me, UML has this problem a lot since it doesn't have iomem for sure, but this randconfig wants to build an x86_64 without iomem and is not pestering us about it.
Is building for x86_64 without iomem really a problem we should be addressing?
I think there are tons of problems in the kernel related to the depends on HAS_IOMEM being missing, we can go fixing that forever I think.
