[PATCH] CodingStyle: Expand IS_ENABLED() documentation

[Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com>]

CodingStyle recommends IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_FOO) over #ifdef.  Add an example
of the #ifdef, since it's not completely obvious that in many cases the
#ifdef needs to test both CONFIG_FOO and CONFIG_FOO_MODULE.
