The thing he reported 2 weeks ago is a straightforward recursive dependency bug in the config entries:
drivers/gpu/drm/Kconfig:8:error: found recursive dependency: DRM -> <choice> -> DRM_I915 -> FB -> FB_I810 -> AGP -> DRM
this is the precise circular dependency problem that the I810_FB and INTEL_FB changes in my patch solve.
Give my patch a try :-)
