NAK, not only is selecting user-visible symbols generally frowned upon, 
and ignoring their dependencies even worse, but for a multiplatform 
kernel the user may well want this to be a module.

If having the SMMU driver built-in is somehow fundamentally required for 
this platform to boot, that would represent much bigger problems.

Thanks,
Robin.
