Thank you for the feedback. Yes, The change is intended to support the 
Qualcomm QCS615 Ride platform, which is now upstream-ready and actively 
maintained.
I believe enabling it as a module ensures it's available without 
impacting other platforms. While it's not currently used directly in the 
kernel, having it built as a module allows flexibility for platforms 
like QCS615 that may require it in future use cases.
