Either

upgrade the kernel without the drm PORTS_ whatever thing → upgrade 
drm-current-kmod → add back the PORTS_thing if you really want it → 
upgrade kernel again

or

remove the IGNORE line in the port's Makefile → upgrade 
drm-current-kmod → upgrade the kernel.

You have discovered precisely why this (building kmods from ports when 
building the kernel itself) is not a very good feature :)
