bpfilter: Allow to build bpfilter_umh as a module without static library
Originally, bpfilter_umh was linked with -static only when CONFIG_BPFILTER_UMH=y. Commit 8a2cc0505cc4 ("bpfilter: use 'userprogs' syntax to build bpfilter_umh") silently, accidentally dropped the CONFIG_BPFILTER_UMH=y test in the Makefile. Revive it in order to link it dynamically when CONFIG_BPFILTER_UMH=m. Since commit b1183b6dca3e ("bpfilter: check if $(CC) can link static libc in Kconfig"), the compiler must be capable of static linking to enable CONFIG_BPFILTER_UMH, but it requires more than needed. To loosen the compiler requirement, I changed the dependency as follows: depends on CC_CAN_LINK depends on m || CC_CAN_LINK_STATIC If CONFIG_CC_CAN_LINK_STATIC in unset, CONFIG_BPFILTER_UMH is restricted to 'm' or 'n'. In theory, CONFIG_CC_CAN_LINK is not required for CONFIG_BPFILTER_UMH=y, but I did not come up with a good way to describe it.
