[PATCH v2 1/3] thermal: Hide CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON

[Jean Delvare]

It's about time to revert 16d752397301b95abaa95cbaf9e785d221872311.
Anybody running a kernel >= 2.6.40 would also be running a recent
enough version of lm-sensors.

Actually having CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON is pretty convenient so instead
of dopping it, we keep it but hide it.
