Can you try to remove mem from your kernel config and try this patch?
The DRM drivers are missing a dependency to mem(4) since mem(4) was
made a kernel module.  The DRM drivers need mem(4) because they use
mem_range_attr_set().  With this patch, you should be able to load
your DRM driver without errors, even if mem(4) isn't compiled in the
kernel.  You must of course have it as a module though.
