ARM_CHARLCD does not depend on AUXDISPLAY either.

I wouldn't mind if all of them were inside the AUXDISPLAY if/endif
for menu cleanness, but AFAIK it's not necessary for code dependencies.

I was just working on a separate patch to change PANEL from config to
menuconfig. That makes the PANEL sub-menu presentation cleaner.
