You could make the directory by obj-y, and therefore always included,
and have various drivers controlled by their own Kconfig symbols.

Or else, you could leave the directory controlled by ARCH_AMBARELLA
and make the above `obj-y += soc.o` instead, since it's always
going to be built if the directory is included.

Thanks,
Conor.
