My rationale was that since DRM_DISPLAY_DP_HELPER is not a user-visible
symbol but DRM_DP_{AUX_CHARDEV,CEC} are, the latter should be able to
be enabled by the user without relying on other drivers to select the
required symbols (I would argue that even should select DP_HELPER but
that can't be done or otherwise the helper couldn't be built as module).
In other words, either DRM_DP_{AUX_CHARDEV,CEC} can be user selectable
as a standalone symbol or can't and will only be visible if other driver
selects their required symbols.
In which case, why not just do this non-user visible and just make the
drivers using their helpers to select it directly? That is one of the
options I proposed before.
So I believe this is the less intrusive change that will preserve the
current behaviour as much as possible.
I don't have a strong opinion though and if you prefer I can change to
be a depends instead.
