IMPACT:

During boot, after the rootfs is mounted, the linux-snapdragon kernel prints several lines like these:

these are the audio and drm modules failing to attach due to the adv7511 i2c bridge missing - they will retry several times, until the adv7511_drm is finally loaded and these messages will disappear.

While both audio and video work fine in the end, these lines make parsing the boot logs harder and might fool a user to think there's a potential problem.

FIX:

To fix it, make the config DRM_I2C_ADV7511=y.

HOW TO REPRODUCE:

Boot a patched kernel and check the boot logs.

REGRESSION POTENTIAL:

Probably none.
