As always, I'm good with things being moved to tristate if there is a use case
for it.  I will note that in this case however, that the above Kconfig option
is not specific to this file/driver.  It is controlling the inclusion of
several dirs/files, and so a more fine grained Kconfig may be required if some
are to be built-in and some are to be tristate...
