OK, now I get what's going on. EXTCON is build as a module, but
FUSB302 is not. This should be explained in the commit message.

That does not mean we have to force everybody to enable EXTCON in
order to use this driver. Try something like this:

diff --git a/drivers/usb/typec/tcpm/Kconfig b/drivers/usb/typec/tcpm/Kconfig
index 72481bbb2af3..06e026f6325c 100644
--- a/drivers/usb/typec/tcpm/Kconfig
+++ b/drivers/usb/typec/tcpm/Kconfig
@@ -31,6 +31,7 @@ endif # TYPEC_TCPCI

config TYPEC_FUSB302
tristate "Fairchild FUSB302 Type-C chip driver"

depends on I2C
