SRU Justification:

[Impact]
The mlxbf_livefish driver depends on CONFIG_ACPI but that requirement
is not specified in the driver's Kconfig. So, any attempt to build a
kernel with CONFIG_ACPI not set and CONFIG_MLXBF_LIVEFISH set will
result in a build error.

[Fix]
* Update the Kconfig file in drivers/platform/mellanox to specify
  the CONFIG_ACPI dependency

[Test Case]
* Clear CONFIG_ACPI in kernel configuration
* Verify there is no option to configure mlxbf_livefish driver
* Verify that no build errors result

[Regression Potential]
* no known regression.
