This now depends on the VGA textmode console. Even if you have no VGA 
console, you'd want drm_nomodeset.o. Simpledrm might be built-in and can 
provide graphics. Non-PC systems don't even have a VGA device.

I think we really want a separate boolean config option that gets 
selected by CONFIG_DRM.

I'd update this text to be less sensational.

These changes should be in patch 1?
