David Rientjes 6a108a14fa kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel.  A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).

Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.

Dmitri Vorobiev 6acc7d485c MIPS: Fix and enhance built-in kernel command line
Currently, MIPS kernels silently overwrite kernel command-line parameters
hardcoded in CONFIG_CMDLINE by the ones received from firmware.  Therefore,
using firmware remains the only reliable method to transfer the
command-line parameters, which is not always desirable or convenient, and
the CONFIG_CMDLINE option is thereby effectively rendered useless.

This patch fixes the problem described above and introduces a more flexible
scheme of handling the kernel command line, in a manner identical to what is
currently used for x86.  The default behavior, i.e. when CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL
is not defined, retains the existing semantics, and firmware command-line
arguments override the hardcoded ones.

[Ralf: I fixed up all the defconfig files so the stay unaffected by this
change.]

Ralf Baechle f7ade3c168 MIPS: Get rid of CONFIG_CPU_HAS_LLSC
CONFIG_CPU_HAS_LLSC duplicated the function of cpu_has_llsc for no good
reason and and the results if the one was enabled and the other disabled
was very unobvious.  Remove it now that there are no more remaining users.

Ralf Baechle 302922e5f6 [MIPS] Qemu: Remove platform.
The Qemu platform was originally implemented to have an easily supportable
platform until Qemu reaches a state where it emulates a real world system.
Since the latest release Qemu is capable of emulating the MIPSsim and
Malta platforms, so this goal has been reached.  The Qemu plaform is also
rather underfeatured so less useful than a Malta emulation.

Ralf Baechle 81149be113 [MIPS] Remove CONFIG_SIBYTE_PT{1120,1125,SWARM}

never reached customers so no need to keep the fragmentary support we
currently have.
