Not sure about this. We do support this driver to be a module.

As noted by others this is not a correct transformation, the existing
code works properly when modular. But it will not with this change.
device_initcall() is rerouted to module_init() inside of a module
build, whereas the thing builtin_platform_driver() expands to does
not.
