drm/i915: tell the user if both KMS and UMS are disabled
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 Author: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Date: Thu Oct 10 15:25:37 2013 +0300 drm/i915: tell the user KMS is required for gen6+ but it won't be reached if CONFIG_DRM_I915_UMS=n since commit b30324ad Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Wed Nov 13 22:11:25 2013 +0100 drm/i915: Deprecated UMS support v2: Use DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER.
