The IT6505 is using functions provided by the DRM_DP_HELPER driver.
In order to avoid having the bridge enabled but the helper disabled,
let's add a select in order to be sure that the DP helper functions are
always available.

ITE IT6505 DisplayPort bridge chip driver.

http://lore.kernel.org/r/20220403151637.15546-1-rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxxx also select DRM_DP_AUX_BUS,
can you check if this is really neaded ?

Oops, I didn't notice that patch.

Anyway I can successfully link with the following config:
CONFIG_DRM_ITE_IT6505=y
CONFIG_DRM_DP_AUX_BUS=m
CONFIG_DRM_DP_HELPER=y

But I cannot with the following config:
CONFIG_DRM_ITE_IT6505=y
CONFIG_DRM_DP_AUX_BUS=m
CONFIG_DRM_DP_HELPER=m

This suggest that DRM_DP_AUX_BUS is not required for that driver.

Thanks for confirming:
