Thanks for your review.

There is some precent for that (DVB_AV7110_IR, PINCTRL_FALCON,
DVB_AV7110_IR) in recent code but it's a bit of a stretch.

Adding the new Kconfig symbol would add complexity and it would only get
used in two places.

I appreciate the general preference for declarative style over imperative.
But is there a stronger argument against conditionals in Makefiles?

Adding a dummy function to be used in only one place seems questionable to
me. I'm not expecting new call sites to appear outside of that ifdef.

Some of the arguments against ifdefs (reduced test and checker coverage,
readability harm) don't really apply in this case.
