We can only use I2C support in frame buffer drivers if
Either I2C is built-in, or both I2C and the driver itself
are loadable modules.

Fix this dependency for MB862XX and CyberPro frame buffers.

Why?

If I2C is a loadable module, and the I2C support of the framebuffer
driver is built-in, you get a link error when building vmlinux:

drivers/built-in.o: In function `cyberpro_pci_remove':
:(.text+0x1ea5c): undefined reference to `i2c_del_adapter'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `cyberpro_pci_probe':
:(.text+0x20224): undefined reference to `i2c_bit_add_bus'
:(.text+0x20240): undefined reference to `i2c_del_adapter'
make[2]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

It's probably a good idea to mention that in the changeset
text.
