drivers/gpu/drm/tinydrm/Makefile has:

obj-$(CONFIG_DRM_TINYDRM)               += core/

And AFAIK at least most of the drivers under drivers/gpu/drm/tinydrm
actually need the tinydrm-core.

So instead you should make the config option a hidden one
and select it in all the drivers which need it, otherwise
things will no longer work after a clean build AFAICT.

Note that even though the config option now remains, this change:

Is still necessary so that when other drivers which do not
depend on the tinydrm core and thus will not do:
	select DRM_TINYDRM
will still get build.

Otherwise this series looks good to me and you can add my:

Reviewed-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede at redhat.com> to it once
this is fixed.

Note that drivers/gpu/drm/cirrus is a single .c file tiny
driver now a days too, so it too could be moved to the new
tiny dir. I was actually planning on doing something similar
to this series once I got one more tiny driver upstream :)
