The command is correct, but you also need to make sure that the driver is 
selected in the kernel configuration, otherwise it won't get compiled.

A good way to find out whether a .c source file has been compiled is to check 
that a .o file with the same base name has been created in the same directory. 
The kernel build system should also print

  CC      drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_ssd1351.o

during compilation.
