Yeah, it looks like it was fallout from these commits:

    Bus: Remove ISA support.
    
    No, really.  PCI is old enough to drive now.  If you want this, get the kernel
    to expose a framebuffer device.

    Remove mibank support
    
    Banked framebuffers are so 1990.  As of 7.4 the only drivers remaining
    that used this were chips, neomagic, trident, and vesa.  vesa only used
    it when not using shadowfb, which is broadly undesirable anyway, and no
    longer uses it at all as of 2.3.0.  neomagic never used it by default,
    and support for it is gone in git master.  The other two effectively
    only ever used it for ISA chips; since ISA support is now gone from
    the server, they have been modified to only compile mibank support when
    ISA support is available.
