This is an internal kconfig symbol, it isn't seen by the user, which
is a pretty normal pattern.

But I don't think the help should be included (since it cannot be
seen), and I'm pretty sure it should be a tristate

But overall, it might be better to just double link the little helper:

obj-$(CONFIG_TCG_CR50_SPI) += cr50.o cr50_spi.o
obj-$(CONFIG_TCG_CR50_I2C) += cr50.o cr50_i2c.o

As we don't actually ever expect to load both modules into the same
system
