The `auxiliary` and `pci` modules are conditional on
`CONFIG_AUXILIARY_BUS` and `CONFIG_PCI` respectively. When these are
disabled, the intra-doc links to `auxiliary::Driver` and `pci::Driver`
break, causing rustdoc warnings (or errors with `-D warnings`).

Fix this by making the documentation for these examples conditional on
the corresponding configuration options.

Applied to driver-core-linus, thanks!

Tomo: do you want to send the other cases in your diff as a patch? Thanks!
This patch, together with Tomo's diff, will likely clean UML in 6.18.y
as well (Cc'ing David).
Cheers,
Miguel

Ah, I thought I had seen someone else run into this somewhere, but I
couldn't find it. Thanks for digging it up!
