[PATCH] hwmon: Remove stale CONFIG_SENSORS_SBRMI Makefile reference

kconfiglint reports:

  X001: CONFIG_SENSORS_SBRMI referenced in Makefile but not defined
        in any Kconfig

The SB-RMI hardware monitoring driver was originally introduced in
commit 5a0f50d110b3 ("hwmon: Add support for SB-RMI power module") with
both a Kconfig entry (CONFIG_SENSORS_SBRMI) and a Makefile line
(obj-$(CONFIG_SENSORS_SBRMI) += sbrmi.o) in drivers/hwmon/.

Commit e156586764050 ("hwmon/misc: amd-sbi: Move core sbrmi from hwmon to
misc")
moved the driver to drivers/misc/amd-sbi/ to support additional
functionality beyond hardware monitoring. That commit correctly removed the
Kconfig entry from drivers/hwmon/Kconfig, moved the source file
drivers/hwmon/sbrmi.c to drivers/misc/amd-sbi/sbrmi.c, and created new
Kconfig/Makefile entries in drivers/misc/amd-sbi/ with a renamed symbol
(CONFIG_AMD_SBRMI_I2C).

However, the Makefile line in drivers/hwmon/Makefile was not removed in
that commit. The orphaned line references a CONFIG symbol that no longer
exists and a source file that is no longer present, so it has no effect
on the build — but it is dead code that should be cleaned up.

Remove the stale Makefile reference.

Applied.
