[PATCH v2] drm/panel: Select DRM_DP_HELPER for DRM_PANEL_EDP

From: Thomas Zimmermann
Date: Thu Feb 03 2022 - 04:39:30 EST


As reported in [1], DRM_PANEL_EDP depends on DRM_DP_HELPER. Select
the option to fix the build failure. The error message is shown
below.

arm-linux-gnueabihf-ld: drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-edp.o: in function
`panel_edp_probe': panel-edp.c:(.text+0xb74): undefined reference to
`drm_panel_dp_aux_backlight'
make[1]: *** [/builds/linux/Makefile:1222: vmlinux] Error 1

The issue has been reported before, when DisplayPort helpers were
hidden behind the option CONFIG_DRM_KMS_HELPER. [2]

v2:
* fix and expand commit description (Arnd)
