Thanks! That was exactly what I needed to know.

The relevant (and most recent) commit is here:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/84ba253b07a3d8e58160690320e9cfbe199bb88e

Greg is correct, the intention was to force the driver to only be
built as a module. Unfortunately this isn't the way to go about it, as
the Kconfig will still allow you to build the driver into the kernel
if modules are enabled.

I would prefer, instead, making the three drivers mutually exclusive
until the conflicting issue is resolved. Would a patch for that be
welcome here?
