This ends up with a Kconfig error on my kernel, with:

For a resolution refer to Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt
subsection "Kconfig recursive dependency limitations"


The culprit being the dependency on EXTCON in the Rockchip cdn-dp driver.
Moving to "select EXTCON" seems to fix the issue, but I'm not sure yet if that
is the correct solution.
