To make sure we can build random configurations, this turns on CONFIG_INPUT
whenever CONFIG_AT91_ADC is enabled.


I'm wondering wether we should make part of the driver compile only if
CONFIG_INPUT is defined. Maybe some user will want to use the ADC and
not have any input on their board.

What do you think ?


This typically just leads to more build errors. E.g. if INPUT is defined as a module, but AT91_ADC is build in. I think it is very rare to see a configuration without INPUT set, other then a randconfig.
