[PATCH -mm] Make Smart Battery System depend on ACPI_SBSACPI_PROC_EVENT

[Fernando Luis Vázquez Cao]

Playing with the latest -mm kernel I stumbled upon the following compile
error:

  CHK     include/linux/version.h
  CHK     include/linux/utsrelease.h
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh

ate_proc_event4'
make[2]: *** [drivers/acpi/sbs.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/acpi] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2

The problem turned out to be that the sbs module is still using
acpi_bus_generate_proc_event4(), which is part of the
deprecated /proc/acpi/event interface. This patch makes this dependency
explicit.
