As told before the only reason to not build the multipath code is to save space, and the only reason to disable multipath at runtime is for potential pre-existing setups, which obviously are not ANA capable. The right fix is to warn users if they use a driver without CONFIG_NVME_MULTIPATH on a multi-port device and to phase out the multipath=0 option in the long run, again with a warning. Any new additions to "improve" these cases simply don't make sense.
