[PATCH] x86: fix unconditional arch/x86/kernel/pcspeaker.c compiling

Applies to 2.6.24-rc8-git1

This patch results from Linux Tiny's efforts to hunt for unnecessary
code added unconditionally with "obj-y +="

This patch make the compilation of arch/x86/kernel/pcspeaker.c
depend on PC speaker support. Before that, this file was always
compiled even if pc speaker support wasn't enabled.

I'm checking that CONFIG_INPUT_PCSPKR is not set to "m",
as arch/x86/kernel/pcspeaker.c shouldn't be compiled as a module:
- It defines no init and exit functions
- It defines an initcall which only makes sense at
  kernel boot time.

Results: if PC speaker support is disabled
- It reduces the uncompressed kernel size by 218 bytes!!! ;)
- It must also bring a tiny reduction in boot time
  but suppressing a useless initcall.

Your comments?
