If a driver is built in you can't use fb as a module. Kernel kconfig
controls this automatically for you. If you pick fb as a module you
will only get modules as a choice on the drivers. If you pick built in
you can build the drivers either way. You can't compile fb as a module
and have built in drivers, the kernel will refuse to build.
