i915kms is too broken to even be puttable in LINT, since it is not
in conf/files*.  Only 44 of 157 .c files in dev/drm2 are in conf/files*.
It is puttable in NOTES as comments, but isn't.  According to apropos,
even old drm and radeon are not in any man page.

I don't want modules, but when I tried to build some, new i915 had many
more build errors than old i915, do to the bug that makeoptions in
kernel config files doesn't work for modules and new i915 having
more unportabilities affected by CC and CFLAGS.

i915kms seemed to depend on lots of other modules that I don't want.  With
no NOTES, no dependency lists in conf/files* and no man page, it is hard
to find which ones.
