From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@xxxxxxxxxx>

Several ACPI drivers select THERMAL, but THERMAL depends on NET
(for netlink).  Fix build breakage by making the ACPI drivers
also depend on NET.

This is what is needed to fix the breakage, but it seems
that Len does not care.
It would be better just to eliminate the netlink dependency.
