[hid,v12,02/15] HID: Kconfig: split HID support and hid-core compilation
Commit Message
Currently, we step into drivers/hid/ based on the value of
CONFIG_HID.
However, that value is a tristate, meaning that it can be a module.
As per the documentation, if we jump into the subdirectory by
following an obj-m, we can not compile anything inside that
subdirectory in vmlinux. It is considered as a bug.
To make things more friendly to HID-BPF, split HID (the HID core
parameter) from HID_SUPPORT (do we want any kind of HID support in the
system?), and make this new config a boolean.
