The MTK IOMMU driver need depend on this SMI driver. the IOMMU is a
builtin driver, thus the SMI also should be a builtin driver.

Technically, If the driver is builtin, then the "remove" function can be
removed? If yes, I could use a new patch do it.

It looks the MACRO(builtin_platform_driver) only support one driver, but
we have two driver(smi-common and smi-larb) here.
