I was about to suggest fixing either this or his counterpart in the header file. Please send this in a series along with the previous patch in order to let people understand why you are sending this. Besides, I think you can improve the explanation here, which is the different behaviour of drm_dp_tunnel_mgr_create() depending on the CONFIG_DRM_DISPLAY_DP_TUNNEL config flag. You can add to both of them my r-b. Did you check who is maintaining this file?
