This breaks DaVinci (da8xx_omapl_defconfig), following change was
required to get it build if OF_VIDEOMODE or/and FB_MODE_HELPERS
is not defined. There may be better solutions, following was the
one that was used by me to test this series.

I just did a quick "make da8xx_omapl_defconfig && make" and it builds just fine.
On what version did you apply the series?
At the moment I have the series sitting on 3.7. Didn't try any 3.8-rcx yet.
But fixing this shouldn't be a problem.
You are right, me idiot, error will happen only upon try to make use of
of_get_fb_videomode() (defined in this patch) in the da8xx-fb driver
(with da8xx_omapl_defconfig), to be exact upon adding,
"video: da8xx-fb: obtain fb_videomode info from dt" of my patch series.
The change as I mentioned or something similar would be required as
any driver that is going to make use of of_get_fb_videomode() would
break if CONFIG_OF_VIDEOMODE or CONFIG_FB_MODE_HELPERS is not defined.
Shouldn't the driver that depends on CONFIG_OF_VIDEOMODE and
CONFIG_FB_MODE_HELPERS, explicitly select them? I don't really see
the point of having the static-inline fallbacks.
fwiw, using 'select' is what I was doing for lcd panel support for
lcdc/da8xx drm driver (which was using the of videomode helpers,
albeit a slightly earlier version of the patches):

BR,
-R
And testing was done over v3.8-rc2.

+#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF_VIDEOMODE)
As _OF_VIDEOMODE is a bool type CONFIG, isn't,
#ifdef CONFIG_OF_VIDEOMODE
sufficient ?
Yes, that is right. But I think IS_ENABLED is the preferred way to do it, isn't it?
Now I realize it is.
