Any reason this can't become tristate instead?
drivers/video/fbdev/sh7760fb.c uses module_platform_driver(), and
already has all needed MODULE_*().

I've meanwhile fixed the immediate issue. But I don't see anything that would prevent the option and driver from being a tristate.

Best regards
Thomas
