Yes the code was not consistent with statement that the module cannot
being loadable in my reply.  I had not used builtin_platform_driver()
previously.  The updated patchset will be changed to this for the

-module_platform_driver(elba_spics_driver);

-MODULE_LICENSE("GPL v2");
-MODULE_DESCRIPTION("Elba SPI chip-select driver");
+builtin_platform_driver(elba_spics_driver);
