Hi Johan,

Please take a look why we made it built-in first [1].

If arguments there are still valid I don't see why to make it a module
again.

It looks like there is a move to make all non-essential drivers buildable as modules. For example, the Kirin, dra7xx, Meson PCI controllers are now buildable as modules. So I think we can follow that and allow building the pcie-qcom as a module.

Allow the Qualcomm PCIe controller driver to be built as a module, which
is useful for multi-platform kernels as well as during development.
