drm/i915: taint kernel when force probing unsupported devicesdrm-intel-fixes-2023-05-11-1
For development and testing purposes, the i915.force_probe module
parameter and DRM_I915_FORCE_PROBE kconfig option allow probing of
devices that aren't supported by the driver.
The i915.force_probe module parameter is "unsafe" and setting it taints
the kernel. However, using the kconfig option does not.
Always taint the kernel when force probing a device that is not
supported.
v2: Drop "depends on EXPERT" to avoid build breakage (kernel test robot)
Fixes: 7ef5ef5cdead ("drm/i915: add force_probe module parameter to replace alpha_support")
