How does this work? builtin_platform_driver() means that it's not
modular code. Shouldn't that be module_platform_driver()? Have you tried
loading and unloading the module?
sorry for my late response. 

Thanks for pointing this out. I have the same question when I was
building this patch. That time I found some examples where
they are using builtin_platform_driver and can be built as 
kernel modules:

config CLK_IMX8QXP (tristate) && drivers/clk/imx/clk-imx8qxp-lpcg.c
config CLK_RK3399 (tristate) && drivers/clk/rockchip/clk-rk3399.c

my load test:
load these moduless and do 'lsmod' on v5.14-rc1/mt6779 environment:

clk_mt6779_aud 16384 0 [permanent], Live 0xffff800008fd8000
clk_mt6779_mfg 16384 0 [permanent], Live 0xffff800008fd0000
clk_mt6779_venc 16384 0 [permanent], Live 0xffff800008fc8000
clk_mt6779_vdec 16384 0 [permanent], Live 0xffff800008fc0000
clk_mt6779_cam 16384 0 [permanent], Live 0xffff800008fb8000
clk_mt6779_ipe 16384 0 [permanent], Live 0xffff800008fb0000
clk_mt6779_img 16384 0 [permanent], Live 0xffff800008fa8000
clk_mt6779_mm 16384 0 [permanent], Live 0xffff800008fa0000

I did not test 'unload' kernel modules because I did not
define module_exit in this patch.

But as you pointed out, it should be module_platform_driver().
I will use module_platform_driver() in the next patch.
