Hi Angelo

I guess it should also be done for DRM_MEDIATEK, if I refer to the lsmod 
result:

Module                  Size  Used by
mtk_cmdq_helper        20480  1 mediatek_drm
mtk_cmdq_mailbox       20480  1 mtk_cmdq_helper

Or is it maybe enough to protect the call of the dependent driver with 
IS_REACHABLE or IS_ENABLED helpers ?

What do you think ?
