If I scanned the code correctly then all this module does is exporting
three functions to s3fwrn5_i2c.ko. Note that there's also no
module_unit() in sight. So it's a library, of sorts. And there's no
reason to load this module without also loading s3fwrn5_i2c.ko. Likewise
there's no reason to build it without also building s3fwrn5_i2c.ko.

So perhaps you could merge the two Kconfig symbols you add in this
patch.

Or, if you'd like to keep both Kconfig symbols, for whatever reason, you
might want to make NFC_S3FWRN5 a "silent" symbol that will be selected
by NFC_S3FWRN5_I2C. (That probably requires NFC_S3FWRN5_I2C to depend on
both NFC_NCI and I2C.)

Would either of the above two options work here?

You only added "default y" to make setting this symbol in "make *config"
a one step process, right?

(This advice is at odds with "default y" above, by the way.)

Nit: both modules' code contain a comment referring to the "GNU General
Public License, version 2". They also both use the "GPL" ident in their
MODULE_LICENSE() macro. And, according to include/linux/module.h, that
ident states the license is GPL v2 or later. So I think either the
comments or the idents need to change.
