From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd at arndb.de>

The 'select FB_CORE' statement moved from CONFIG_DRM to DRM_CLIENT_LIB,
but there are now configurations that have code calling into fb_core
as built-in even though the client_lib itself is a loadable module:

Since the code that calls into fb_core is not actually in the client_lib
module but in other helper libraries, move the 'select' again to the
places that actually call into fb_core, in this case DRM_GEM_SHMEM_HELPER
and DRM_KMS_HELPER.

I have only given this light build testing. It seems sensible on the surface,
but there is a chance that there are additional helpers that need the same
'select'. Moving it into CONFIG_DRM itself would be the safer option, but
that seems to defeat the purpose of the client-lib module.
