[PATCH] x86: Add a prompt for HPET_EMULATE_RTC

From: Anand K Mistry
Date: Wed Feb 03 2021 - 21:22:26 EST


This does two things:
1. Makes the option visible in menuconfig, allowing the user to easily
disable this option
2. Allows olddefconfig to respoct the option if it is set in the old
.config file

It's not clear exactly why the second consequence is true, but it
appears to be because when the conf tool reads the config file, it only
respects the existing setting if the option is "visible" (see
scripts/kconfig/symbol.c:381).
