Just use constants or local devices in your driver. Furthermore, because you made this the last patch, the tree would fail to build at the point where the first three of your patches are applied. This breaks GIT bisection, and is severely frowned upon. The tree must build with all available kernel config options enabled at every step of applying your set of patches.
