thermal: hide CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON

Browse Source 
It's about time to revert 16d7523973 ("thermal: Create
CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=n").  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
dropping it, we keep it but hide it.

What: CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON
When: January 2009
Why: This option was introduced just to allow older lm-sensors userspace
to keep working over the upgrade to 2.6.26. At the scheduled time of
removal fixed lm-sensors (2.x or 3.x) should be readily available.

The generic thermal sysfs driver's hardware monitoring support
requires a 2.10.7/3.0.2 or later lm-sensors userspace.
Say Y if your user-space is new enough.
