This is rather odd. The whole point of the platform_driver
infrastructure is that the arch code only registers it if it's present
and then the driver can match for it. So the right fix here is to move
the platform_driver_register(&mac_mace_driver) into the mac arch setup
code. A quick grep shows this is a quite common pattern for m68k
drivers.
