depends on THERMAL && THERMAL_OF

Did some more investigation on linux-next about the regression if we
make this depends on THERMAL.

MAX8973 enabled in following defconfig
arch/arm64/configs/defconfig:CONFIG_REGULATOR_MAX8973=y
This has CONFIG_THERMAL=y
arch/arm/configs/shmobile_defconfig:CONFIG_REGULATOR_MAX8973=y
This has THERMAL_CONFIG=y
arch/arm/configs/multi_v7_defconfig:CONFIG_REGULATOR_MAX8973=y
This has THERMAL_CONFIG=y
arch/arm/configs/pxa_defconfig:CONFIG_REGULATOR_MAX8973=m
This has THERMAL_CONFIG=m

So there is no issue on making "depends on THERMAL".

Currently, only one user for this device in linux-next:
arch/arm/boot/dts/r8a73a4-ape6evm.dts: compatible = "maxim,max8973";

and this is shmobile based.
Adding Geert and Simon for their comment.
