A bool Kconfig symbol.

So jz4780-nemc.o will never be part of a module.

This is, I think, a red flag.

This will be preprocessed away.

.owner will, basically, be NULL.

subsys_initcall() suggests, I guess, you don't actually expect this to
be modular.

This will never be called.

These macros will be, effectively, preprocessed away.

And, by the way, "GPL v2" is at odds with the license in the comment
quoted above.
