[PATCH 0/2] drm/rockchip: Add missing DRM_BRIDGE_CONNECTOR selects

[Igor Paunovic]

While testing the dw-dp v11 series I noticed that ROCKCHIP_DW_DP does
not select DRM_BRIDGE_CONNECTOR although dw_dp-rockchip.c calls
drm_bridge_connector_init(), and Sebastian suggested handling this
independently of that series [1].

The ROCKCHIP_DW_DP gap was in fact found before: Marius Dinu posted
the same one-liner in March [2] and dropped it when the failure
stopped reproducing in his build. The failure is
configuration-dependent - any other enabled option that selects
DRM_BRIDGE_CONNECTOR masks it - so it can come and go with unrelated
config changes. It still reproduces on current drm-misc-next.

A sweep over drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip found eight callers of
drm_bridge_connector_init(). Five options already select it,
ROCKCHIP_INNO_HDMI gets it through its DRM_INNO_HDMI core option, and
two are left with a latent link failure: ROCKCHIP_DW_DP and
ROCKCHIP_RK3066_HDMI. The rk3066 case additionally needs
DRM_DISPLAY_HELPER, whose module carries the bridge-connector code.

Both failures were reproduced on drm-misc-next (d85a5e9dfb42) with an
arm64 allnoconfig-based configuration enabling only DRM_ROCKCHIP plus
the option in question; with the fixes applied both configurations
link cleanly, and an arm64 defconfig re-run shows no new Kconfig
warnings. Both issues are present in released kernels: the rk3066 one
since v6.16, the dw_dp one since v6.18.
