Nothing enabled by BATTERY_BQ27XXX depends on I2C, this workaround is not
correct as it prevents BATTERY_BQ27XXX from being built-in when I2C is a
module, there is no reason for this limitation.

The undefined references are caused by BATTERY_BQ27XXX being built-in AND
its I2C functionality being enabled (BATTERY_BQ27XXX_I2C) while I2C is a
module. Reorganizing this driver is being discussed anyway, but in the
meantime a more correct fix would be along the lines of:

diff --git a/drivers/power/Kconfig b/drivers/power/Kconfig
