no, randconfig won't try to set symbols that a user doesn't see. This
is what 'menuconfig'
says enabled it.

  │   Selected by: DRM_NOUVEAU [=n] && HAS_IOMEM [=y] && DRM [=y] &&
PCI [=n] && MMU [=n] && (BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE [=m] || !ACPI) ||
DRM_LEGACY [=y] && HAS_IOMEM [=y] && DRM [=y]

It must be the 'DRM_LEGACY' option that is actually user visible and
that contains
'select DRM_VM'.
