Subject: [PATCH] ebpf, events: make it actually more configurable

While testing some other BPF issue, I realized that BPF_EVENTS is
actually not accessible through menuconfig because of a missing
description that needs to be attached to the bool. After the patch
the entry shows up in menuconfig and can be enabled/disabled from
there.

Fixes: e1abf2cc8d5d ("bpf: Fix the build on BPF_SYSCALL=y && !CONFIG_TRACING kernels, make it more configurable")
