The only one I see that has a hard dependency on ARCH_ZYNQMP
without allowing compile-testing at the moment is drivers/edac/synopsys_edac.c
but that doesn't use the firmware interface.

What I see in the header are declarations for exported functions:

int zynqmp_pm_invoke_fn(u32 pm_api_id, u32 arg0, u32 arg1,
                        u32 arg2, u32 arg3, u32 *ret_payload);
#if IS_REACHABLE(CONFIG_ZYNQMP_FIRMWARE)
const struct zynqmp_eemi_ops *zynqmp_pm_get_eemi_ops(void);
#else
static inline struct zynqmp_eemi_ops *zynqmp_pm_get_eemi_ops(void)
{
        return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV);
}
#endif

The second one already allows compile-testing by turning into an
inline stub, but zynqmp_pm_invoke_fn() does not, and this is the
one causing the problem here.

I still think my patch is a good fix for that issue, but if you want to
handle both interfaces the same way, we can also do that, either
removing the stub and using a proper dependency, or using
the same stub trick for both.
