Worked fine with my cross-build test, too.
OK, let's enable the build on 4.13.  The patch is attached below.

Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: Enable build with m68k

By some reason in the ancient history, we disabled the build of ALSA
drivers for m68k.  Since we'd like to move sound/oss/dmasound stuff
into ALSA for the complete drop of the legacy OSS stuff, let's try to
start building with m68k.
