That's right.

The problem I spotted was that without the dependency on QCOM_SMD we're
allowed to compile these modules as builtin, but as
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_QCOM_SMD) is true we don't get the stubs and as such
the kernel doesn't link.

So we must enforce these modules to be compiled as modules if either
QCOM_SMD or QCOM_WCNSS_CTRL are compiled as modules, and we do that with
the first part of the depends lines.


The second part of the depends lines states that the alternative
dependency is that the modules are not enabled at all, in which case we
will fall back to using the function stubs.

So this is unfortunately how we have to describe it in Kconfig to work
with the function stubs, sorry for not getting this right in the first
place.

Bjorn
