The Kconfig dependency is incomplete since DRM_I915_GVT is a 'bool'
symbol that depends on the 'tristate' VFIO_MDEV. This allows a
configuration with VFIO_MDEV=m, DRM_I915_GVT=y and DRM_I915=y that
causes a link failure:
x86_64-linux-ld: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gvt/gvt.o: in function `available_instances_show':
gvt.c:(.text+0x67a): undefined reference to `mtype_get_parent_dev'
x86_64-linux-ld: gvt.c:(.text+0x6a5): undefined reference to `mtype_get_type_group_id'
x86_64-linux-ld: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gvt/gvt.o: in function `description_show':
gvt.c:(.text+0x76e): undefined reference to `mtype_get_parent_dev'
x86_64-linux-ld: gvt.c:(.text+0x799): undefined reference to `mtype_get_type_group_id'
Clarify the dependency by specifically disallowing the broken
configuration. If VFIO_MDEV is built-in, it will work, but if
VFIO_MDEV=m, the i915 driver cannot be built-in here.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
