That works too. When I tried the same, I thought it was a little too silly to
have a file that effectively compiles into nothing.

My initial approach did two things differently though:

- use __maybe_unused instead of __used, since

- annotate pl111_amba_driver instead of
  pl111_drm_driver/pl111_modeset_init, and keep only
  module_amba_driver() in the #ifdef.
