Done.

drivers/gpu/drm# find -name Kconfig* -print | xargs grep -l DRM_GEM_SHMEM_HELPER
./lima/Kconfig
./tiny/Kconfig
./cirrus/Kconfig
./Kconfig
./panfrost/Kconfig
./udl/Kconfig
./v3d/Kconfig
./virtio/Kconfig

virtio needs cached.
cirrus+udl should be ok with cached too.

Not clue about the others (lima, tiny, panfrost, v3d).  Maybe they use
write-combine just because this is what they got by default from
drm_gem_mmap_obj().  Maybe they actually need that.  Trying to Cc:
maintainters (and drop stable@).

On decrypted: I guess that is only relevant for virtual machines, i.e.
virtio-gpu and cirrus?

virtio-gpu needs it, otherwise the host can't show the virtual display.
cirrus bounces everything via blits to vram, so it should be ok without
decrypted.  I guess that implies we should make decrypted configurable.

cheers,
