Attempting to build bcma.ko with BCMA_DRIVER_PCI_HOSTMODE=y results in
a build error due to use of symbols not exported from vmlinux:

ERROR: "pcibios_enable_device" [drivers/bcma/bcma.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "register_pci_controller" [drivers/bcma/bcma.ko] undefined!
make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:92: __modpost] Error 1

To prevent this, don't allow the host mode feature to be built if
CONFIG_BCMA=m

Due to the recent regression in bcma I would prefer extra careful review
before I apply this. So does this look ok to everyone?

I have a preference for wireless device drivers to be modules. For that reason, I would have submitted a patch exporting those two missing globals rather than forcing bcma to be built in. That said, it seems that the patch will do no further harm.
