[PATCH -next] fbdev: offb: allow build when DRM_OFDRM=m

Fix build when CONFIG_FB_OF=y and CONFIG_DRM_OFDRM=m.
When the latter symbol is =m, kconfig downgrades (limits) the 'select's
under FB_OF to modular (=m). This causes undefined symbol references:

powerpc64-linux-ld: drivers/video/fbdev/offb.o:(.data.rel.ro+0x58): undefined reference to `cfb_fillrect'
powerpc64-linux-ld: drivers/video/fbdev/offb.o:(.data.rel.ro+0x60): undefined reference to `cfb_copyarea'
powerpc64-linux-ld: drivers/video/fbdev/offb.o:(.data.rel.ro+0x68): undefined reference to `cfb_imageblit'

Fix this by allowing FB_OF any time that DRM_OFDRM != y so that the
selected FB_CFB_* symbols will become =y instead of =m.

In tristate logic (for DRM_OFDRM), this changes the dependency from
    !DRM_OFDRM	== 2 - 1 == 1 => modular only (or disabled)
to (boolean)
    DRM_OFDRM != y == y, allowing the 'select's to cause the
FB_CFB_* symbols to =y instead of =m.
