This series adds a number of bool Kconfig symbols. So, as far as I can
see, the code it adds can only be built-in.

This series also uses a number of module specific constructs (ie,
THIS_MODULE, MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE, module_exit, MODULE_AUTHOR,
MODULE_DESCRIPTION, and MODULE_LICENSE). So I wonder whether it was
intended to make these new Kconfig symbols tristate instead?
