Hmm, sorry, my old explanation is totally Wrong, it's better to select
it for us, just as the x86 platform drivers did:

$ cat drivers/platform/x86/Kconfig | grep " HWMON"
	select HWMON
	select HWMON

Because the HWMON stuff is put in the device drivers as a menuconfig,
but our platform driver is put in its own directory. it will not be
convenient for the users to select it themselves, and also, this select
have no side effect.
