One issue is that the interconnect graph is described per-soc and there 
are per-soc config options while imx-bus applies to all. So the "if" 
condition is not sufficient either; if the per-soc interconnect driver 
is omitted then the platform device will be added but no driver will be 
ever be found.

There are ways around this: for example all of imx interconnect could be 
built as a single module. But I think it's reasonable for devices to be 
partially functional if some config options are missing and heavy config 
customization sometimes requires a bit of debugging.

There are various issues when building the current series as "m" but I 
can solve them and post a final patch which sets all the relevant 
options on "m" in arm64 defconfig. The it will all "just work" out of 
the box.
