Thanks, removed.

Thanks, it is, removed.

If I revert all three IS_ENABLED back to plain #ifdefs, and rebuild with
CONFIG_CORESIGHT*=m, I get:

Building CORESIGHT=y builds ok, so, building it as a module causes the
latter stubs to be compiled:

#ifdef CONFIG_CORESIGHT
extern struct coresight_device *
coresight_register(struct coresight_desc *desc);
extern void coresight_unregister(struct coresight_device *csdev);
extern int coresight_enable(struct coresight_device *csdev);
extern void coresight_disable(struct coresight_device *csdev);
extern int coresight_timeout(void __iomem *addr, u32 offset,
                             int position, int value);
#else
static inline struct coresight_device *
coresight_register(struct coresight_desc *desc) { return NULL; }
static inline void coresight_unregister(struct coresight_device *csdev) {}
static inline int
coresight_enable(struct coresight_device *csdev) { return -ENOSYS; }
static inline void coresight_disable(struct coresight_device *csdev) {}
static inline int coresight_timeout(void __iomem *addr, u32 offset,
                                     int position, int value) { return 1; }
#endif

Adding kconfig.h to coresight.h's #include list doesn't help.  So we
need the IS_ENABLED for its __or(..., IS_MODULE()) case.

That being said, I don't know of any outside kernel-build dependencies
coresight.h might have.
