    drm/i915: tell the user if both KMS and UMS are disabled · c9cd7b65
    Jani Nikula authored
    If both KMS is disabled (by i915.modeset=0 or nomodeset parameters) and
    UMS is disabled (by CONFIG_DRM_I915_UMS=n, the default), the user might
    not be aware his setup is not supported. Inform the users (and, by
    extension, the poor i915 developers having to read their dmesgs in bug
    reports) why their graphics experience might be lacking.
    
    A similar message was added on the UMS path in
    commit e147accb
