thermal: Create CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=n

A bug in libsensors <= 2.10.6 is exposed when this new hwmon I/F is enabled. Create CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=n until some time after libsensors 2.10.7 ships so those users can run the latest kernel. libsensors 3.x is already fixed -- those users can use CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=y now.

+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.
