CORESIGHT_QCOM_REPLICATOR is a bool symbol. So
coresight-replicator-qcom.o will never be part of a module.

(If that's incorrect, you can stop reading here.)

Is this include needed?

For built-in only code THIS_MODULE will be, basically, equivalent to
NULL (see include/linux/export.h). So I suppose this line can be
dropped.

For built-in only code this is, assuming I grepped this correctly,
equivalent to calling
    amba_driver_register(&replicator_driver);

from within a function marked with some sort of *initcall().

For built-in only code these macros will be effectively preprocessed
away.
