I saw a number of places that could be switched, you should look
through.

Commonly the ifdef would be moved to the function header and a static
inline cxgb_fcoe_init_ddp(..) {} declared for the ifndef case. For the
case of static function calls, just drop the ifdefing entirely. The
compiler will silently drop unused static functions. Think carefully
about ifdefing out structure members - I don't think saving a few bytes of
heap in a driver like cxgb4 is worthwhile.

I also just noticed that

drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/cxgb4/cxgb4_fcoe.c

Is wrapped in a whole file #ifdef CONFIG_CHELSIO_T4_FCOE - please use
the makefile instead for this.
