should work in all cases.

I think that would still fail if DRM and TDA998x is built in and SND_SOC is built as modules. A request_module() call before tda9998x_codec_register() should help. Or could could write:

select SND_SOC_TDA998X if (SND_SOC=DRM_I2C_NXP_TDA998X || SND_SOC=y)

request_module() is not needed because there are functions calls from the transmitter to the codec.

With the simple "if SND_SOC", make menuconfig refuses to have TDA998x built in and SND_SOC built as modules, as it should.
