thinkpad-acpi: improve Kconfig help text
Document that rfkill and ALSA functionality exists, but requires the subsystems to be available, and not modular if thinkpad-acpi is not modular. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

This driver was formerly known as ibm-acpi.
+ Extra functionality will be available if the rfkill (CONFIG_RFKILL)
+ and/or ALSA (CONFIG_SND) subsystems are available in the kernel.
+ Note that if you want ThinkPad-ACPI to be built-in instead of
+ modular, ALSA and rfkill will also have to be built-in.

If you have an IBM or Lenovo ThinkPad laptop, say Y or M here.
