Thanks for the report Jim, below patch should fix this problem:

Subject: [PATCH] Thermal: int3406_thermal: solve the dependency build error

Jim found that the current kernel may trigger a build error with some
config: drivers/built-in.o: In function `int3406_thermal_probe':
int3406_thermal.c:(.text+0x1d10b8): undefined reference to
`acpi_video_get_levels'. The problem happens when CONFIG_THERMAL=y and
CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO=m. Since the ACPI video driver can still work well
without CONFIG_THERMAL(regarding its main functionality: backlight
control), solve the problem by removing the select THERMAL line for
ACPI_VIDEO and adding the select ACPI_VIDEO for INT340X_THERMAL. The
result is that for kernels that do not have CONFIG_THERMAL selected now,
the ACPI video driver will not create the cooling device as it did
before(but works well otherwise).
