Welcome! Enjoy the hacking, it is fun.

Frankly, I am not sure it makes something clearer because I myself don't
know what you actually mean. You only need to enable a driver for a
target once in menuconfig. If you have such targets on multiple busses,
then the driver will be reused. You just need to enable it once. Or?
All the best,
Wolfram
