In the makefile the driver is now part of the composite object for
I2C_DESIGNWARE_PLATFORM. So if selected it will compile as the platform driver
is compiled. This makes the most sense since the linking doesn't work right if
both drivers aren't built the same. This is really an extension to the platform
driver anyway and not standalone code.
