reading this I realized that the current implementation on the Rockchip side
is faulty :-) .
For one, there recently was a change for 5.16 that moved this to use
module_platform_driver, while keeping the initdata, which suggest that
the change was actually not tested at all in that context.
And secondly the kconfig is wrong to actually use tristate and should instead
use bool.
Of course this is also influenced by the recent GKI discussion [0] ;-)
I'm going to revert the one change and also adapt the kconfig to use bool
again.
