The sound tree is merged before the mfd tree, and the commit that adds
those is only in the mfd tree.  So the sound tree, on its own, is
broken.  This driver will only build if you merge the mfd tree as well.

yes, but I do builds between merging trees ...

Kconfig has nothing to do with it, sorry.
