This change doesn't directly affect the final kernel, only the preparation process of the kernels that derive from it enforcing those kernel to either enable this config and explicitly disable. I can confirm the derivatives were forced to update the config or annotations file for this config so I'm marking this bug as verified.

We should enforce CONFIG_DRM_BOCHS=m to avoid problem in the future and to let the derivatives update their configuration to include it or not. [Testcase] This should be a no-op for bionic:linux causing no differences for the current kernel. For derivatives, it will prompt the kernel engineer to update the config or to annotate it. [Regression Potential] Since it's no-op, there's no regression potential.
