Well, NOP calls a symbol that belongs to the Gadget API. So NOP cannot
be built-in if gadget API is a module. Satisfy the dependencies and
everything will work for you.
Don't get me wrong, I see what you mean; but you _are_ relying in a
driver that calls into the Gadget API. Consider if it was the other way
around: say NOP was calling something from usbcore for whatever reason
and MUSB depended on NOP. You wouldn't have MUSB built-in unless NOP and
usbcore were also built-in, right?
