[PATCH v2] mux: remove the Kconfig question for the subsystem

[Peter Rosin]

The MULTIPLEXER question in the Kconfig might be confusing and is
of dubious value. Remove it. This makes consumers responsible for
selecting MULTIPLEXER, which they already do.

Right, the previous patch also had the problem that it removed
the MULTIPLEXER option completely and was therefore total crap.

I have tested this patch more thoroughly and it should be a
definite improvement. Sorry for the noise...
