It needs to be static inline:
#ifdef CONFIG_USB_NO_XCEIV
/* sometimes transceivers are accessed only through e.g. ULPI */
extern void usb_nop_xceiv_register(void);
extern void usb_nop_xceiv_unregister(void);
#else
static inline void usb_nop_xceiv_register(void) { }
static inline void usb_nop_xceiv_unregister(void) { }
#endif
And you need to make sure that the actual body of the function in the
C file is encapsulated with #ifdef too, since the very point of having
it under a config option is to not include it if it's not selected
and needed.
