This is a subtle functional change. With this, you'll always have
__setup("nomodeset", text_mode) builtin and the parameter available. And
using nomodeset will print out the pr_warn() splat from text_mode(). But
removing nomodeset will have no impact if CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=n as that
leads to vgacon_text_force() always returning false.

To not make functional changes, this should be:

obj-$(CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE) += drm_nomodeset.o

Now, going with the cleanup in this series, maybe we should make the
functional change, and break the connection to CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE
altogether, also in the header?

(Maybe we'll also need a proxy drm kconfig option to only have
drm_modeset.o builtin when CONFIG_DRM != n.)

As said, maybe the CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE ifdef should be dropped.

Also, this seems like a completely arbitrary choice of header to place
this.
