#ifdef in C files is generally not liked because it makes build
testing harder. There are more permutations to build. It is better to use

if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_WBTR)) {
}

so that the code is compiled, and them throw away because
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_WBTR) evaluates to false.

However, if the stubs are done correctly, the driver should not
care. I doubt this is used in any sort of hot path where every
instruction counts.
