Then rather the question is why snd-soc-usb calls those functions
*unconditionally*. No matter whether we have dependencies in Kconfig,
calling the function means that the callee shall be drug when the
corresponding code is running.
If it were generic core API stuff such as power-management or ACPI,
it'd make sense to define dummy functions without the enablement, as
many code may have optional calls. If the API is enabled, it's anyway
in the core. If not, it's optional. That'll be fine.
OTOH, the stuff you're calling certainly belongs to snd-usb-audio.
Even if the call is really optional, it means that you'll have a hard
dependency when snd-usb-audio is built, no matter whether you need or
not.

If snd-usb-audio is disabled, what snd-soc-usb would serve at all?
Does it still make sense to keep it enabled?
That said, the statement above (building snd-soc-usb without
snd-usb-audio) looks already dubious; isn't it better to have a proper
dependency in Kconfig, instead?
