[ Upstream commit a3f7d26dfce9e2d547a58f4941881843a391a6cc ]
When moving the Sitronix DRM drivers and renaming their Kconfig symbols, the old symbols were kept, aiming to provide a seamless migration path when running "make olddefconfig" or "make oldconfig".
However, the old compatibility symbols are not visible. Hence unless they are selected by another symbol (which they are not), they can never be enabled, and no backwards compatibility is provided.
Drop the broken mechanism and the old symbols.
