You absolutely cannot do this.

You are forcing a distribution to pick one offload or the other at
build time, that's insane.

Please find a way to support both offloads in the driver.  It is
absolutely valid for a distribution to ship the driver in a state that
supports both offloads and you must therefore support this properly.

Thank you.
