I'm confused, it was you who added the depends on !VIDEO_SAMSUNG_EXYNOS_GSC
for DRM_EXYNOS_GSC in commit aeefb36832e5 ("drm/exynos: gsc: add device tree
support and remove usage of static mappings").

>From the commit message "The driver cannot be used simultaneously with V4L2
Mem2Mem GScaller driver thought". Did that assumption changed and the depend
should be removed then? or maybe I misunderstood what you meant.

Now, I'm not really sure about FIMC either, it was feedback I got from this
patch [0]. Could you please take a look to that and let me know if enabling
these drivers simultaneously makes sense then?
