Thanks for your patch, which is now commit a830a15678593948
("drm: rcar-du: Fix Kconfig dependency between RCAR_DU
and RCAR_MIPI_DSI") in v6.1-rc5.

This means this driver is now enabled by default on systems that do not
have the MIPI DSI Encoder (e.g. R-Car Gen2), and that we should probably
disable it explicitly in shmobile_defconfig.  Is that intentional?
