1. Reset or remove values for config symbols that were only
configurable if EXPERT.
2. Set additional configurable symbols to their default values.
This should have no effect on the actual configuration, except for
sh4 where EXPERT is *always* set and so the settings in 1 were
still being followed.

efi-pstore is now a separate module (dependent on efivars). We still
want it to be auto-loaded to enable crash dumps on EFI systems, so add
another module alias.
While we're at it, explicitly set EFI_VARS_PSTORE=m matching what the
actual configuration will be.

This driver doesn't bind to any device IDs, and instead has a comment
saying that the serial_cs and hci_uart drivers should be used instead.
So there's not much point in building it.

Disable most platform drivers, SPI and I2C drivers at the top level.
Platform drivers should be selected by architecture and flavour
configurations, and generally are. SPI and I2C devices aren't easily
detectable and their drivers aren't auto-loaded, so again they should
usually be selected in specific configuration files and probed
according to board code or FDTs.
As exceptions, I2C hwmon devices may be probed by lm-sensors and many
media tuners include I2C devices which are probed with the help of the
higher-level device driver. I've tried to be conservative and also
left I2C iio, input, leds and misc devices alone for now.
Disable the regulator subsystem at the top level as only some
architectures will need it.
Disable MTD_NAND_PLATFORM, PDA_POWER and FB_S1D13XXX on x86, as these
don't appear likely to be used on any x86 system that could run our
generic kernel images.

USB_EHCI_ROOT_HUB_TT adds about 10 lines of code and is safe even if
not needed, so it's never worth turning off.
USB_EHCI_TT_NEWSCHED was 'new' in 2006 and is now the default, so
hardly anyone will be testing the 'old' code now.

Ignore changes in jbd2 and snd-emu10k1, which shouldn't be used by OOT
modules.
Revert change to cgroup structure.
[x86] zsmalloc: Change to built-in, as it can no longer be modular
svn path=/dists/sid/linux/; revision=20070
- Allow disabling use as a pstore backend
- Add module parameter to disable use as a pstore backend
* [x86] Set EFI_VARS_PSTORE_DEFAULT_DISABLE=y
- explicitly calculate length of VariableName
- Handle duplicate names from get_next_variable()
Also apply another fix entangled with them:
- efi_pstore: Introducing workqueue updating sysfs

Drop most patches as they're already upstream in 3.8 or early.
Refresh some others for 3.8. In particular, remove use of __devinit from
debian/radeon-firmware-is-required-for-drm-and-kms-on-r600-onward.patch
as this macro is no longer defined or needed.

Since Linux 2.6.29, this subsystem would crash if anyone tried to use
it, but no-one noticed. It will be removed upstream in Linux 3.9.

All Atheros wireless drivers depend on a new symbol ATH_CARDS.
Two comedi drivers were merged into others and no longer have their
own config symbols.
drivers/staging/telephony has been removed.

Apply upstream changes up to Linux 3.8-rc1, since they include many
important bug fixes and also remove a fair amount of crap.
