The Kconfig symbol is tristate so the driver can be built as a module...

... but the driver doesn't have a platform device ID table nor export
it as a module alias using MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE().

That means that if built as a module, it won't be autoloaded when the
"hi6421v530-regulator" device is registered by the MFD driver.

Alternative you can add a MODULE_ALIAS().
