Right, just got bitten by that one with one of my test configs:

CONFIG_TIGON3=y
CONFIG_HWMON=m

results in:

drivers/built-in.o: In function `.tg3_close':
tg3.c:(.text+0x1ab664): undefined reference to `.hwmon_device_unregister'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `.tg3_hwmon_open':
tg3.c:(.text+0x1b153c): undefined reference to `.hwmon_device_register'

I hit a similar one a while back with some DRM driver, there's no
nice way to solve them afaik, other than basically forcing HWMON to
y if TIGON3 is enabled. Either that, or having TIGON3's hwmon support
be a sub-option itself dependent on CONFIG_HWMON & potentially build
as a separate module etc... quite a pain.

Cheers,
Ben.
