That commit removed DRM_KMS_CMA_HELPER. Later commit 6bcfe8eaeef0
("drm/fb: rename FB CMA helpers to FB DMA helpers") renamed
DRM_KMS_CMA_HELPER erroneously to DRM_KMS_DMA_HELPER.

In the case of drivers/gpu/drm/adp/Kconfig it was missed much later
during review (but iirc went through the same rename out of tree).

That symbol doesn't exist anymore either. It's now DRM_GEM_DMA_HELPER
which is already present in both files.

So the "select DRM_KMS_DMA_HELPER" lines can be removed from both files.
