No, you're missing the point of a generic driver here. This will mean that if someone wants to build the driver into the kernel for their embedded board they will be forced to build in every CODEC driver someone has decided might be used with this generic driver, and even if they're building things modular someone trying to cut down the size of their kernel images is going to at least have to spend time building CODEC drivers they don't want to use. Distributions should just select all the CODEC drivers that are available in Kconfig, people configuring for a particular target audience should be able to build only the drivers they know they need. > If above does not seem fine, alternatively can I just enable CODEC config > independently from defconfig? Yes.
