[PATCH] HOTPLUG: always enable the .config option, unless EMBEDDED

With modules, dynamic /dev, and uevents, people really want
CONFIG_HOTPLUG to be enabled in their kernels.  If not, they can still
disable it, but it is discouraged.

This option is provided for the case where no in-kernel-tree
modules require HOTPLUG functionality, but a module built
outside the kernel tree does. Such modules require Y here.

This option is provided for the case where no hotplug or uevent
capabilities is wanted by the kernel. You should only consider
disabling this option for embedded systems that do not use modules, a
