Actually, I thought that if it were built as a module, then the
builtin_platform_driver would then expand to a module_init() without
module_exit(). So it would become a loadable module that cannot be
unloaded.

That was just looking at the header files, so I could be mistaken.

Side note: IIRC a missing .remove() driver callback doesn't actually
block driver removal or unbinding.
