There is an option that I found.  This is the default:
CONFIG_DRM=y
# CONFIG_DRM_OLD is not set

I would guess that if you change it to read:
# CONFIG_DRM=y
CONFIG_DRM_OLD=y

Then rerun 'make oldconfig', then do all the normal kernel make and
install stuff, you might end up with a system that's using the old drm
instead of drm 4.0.  That's a guess on my part though.
