We try to get cros_ec_proto out of mfd directory, it is weird to
compile something from drivers/platform/chrome/ in drivers/mfd.

Concatenate both line.

You need to modify other transport modules as well:
cros_ec_i2c.c, cros_ec_spi.c.

Another solution would be to make cros_ec a real module. lpc depends
on cros_ec_register, so lsmod will not unload cros_ec [core functions]
if cros_ec_lpc is still loaded.
