4.2.8-ckt7 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Ben Hutchings <ben@...adent.org.uk>

commit 50e6315dba721cbc24ccd6d7b299f1782f210a98 upstream.

Commit 985087dbcb02 'misc: add support for bmp18x chips to the bmp085
driver' changed the BMP085 config symbol to a boolean.  I see no
reason why the shared code cannot be built as a module, so change it
back to tristate.

Fixes: 985087dbcb02 ("misc: add support for bmp18x chips to the bmp085 driver")
