Users of API provided by THERMAL_OF config may suffer when
CONFIG_THERMAL=y, causing linking issues, such as:

drivers/built-in.o: In function `lm75_remove':
lm75.c:(.text+0x12bd8c): undefined reference to `thermal_zone_of_sensor_unregister'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `lm75_probe':
lm75.c:(.text+0x12c123): undefined reference to `thermal_zone_of_sensor_register'

Therefore, this patch limits the compilation build to always
have THERMAL=y, whenever THERMAL_OF=y. In this way, whenever
the API user is built, if THERMAL_OF=y, the build shall have
the full thermal support, otherwise, the thermal API will provide
stubs.

Alternative would be something like

but your patch should work as well (or even better as it won't cause confusion).
