Only a very small number of machines remain that rely on
traditional board files with the ATAGS boot data instead
of devicetree, and we have not accepted new ones for
a decade.
Most of the remaining ones are on their way out of the
kernel, but the Kconfig option that controls ATAGS
is still enabled by default.
To reflect the actual status of ATAGS support and alert
the remaining users of upstream and out-of-tree platforms
with this, change it to being default-disabled and
add a dependency on CONFIG_EXPERT.
The board specific defconfig files that rely on ATAGS
are changed to turn on both EXPERT and ATAGS if they
were not doing that already, and the ones that explicitly
turned it off before no longer need to.

On ARMv4 and ARMv5, the default is still to build for OABI, with
CONFIG_AEABI disabled, even though distros and toolchains no longer
support OABI as a target.
Change the default to EABI for all architecture levels and change
the defconfig entries as follows:
- All machines that used to explicitly enable EABI can drop that line now
- Machines that are likely to actually use old distros and had NWFPE
enabled in combination with OABI (rpc, footrbridge, netwinder,
assabet, neponset) explicitly turn it on now.
- Machines that already had both EABI and NWFPE disabled in defconfig
(spear3xx, spear6xx) were likely not usable with either OABI or
EABI and now use EABI instead implicitly, making it more likely that
they could work.

PCMCIA is almost completely obsolete (the last computers supporting it
natively were from ~2009), and the general consensus [1] seems to be
that support for it should be gradually removed from the kernel.
In 2023, an initial step of removing all the PCMCIA char drivers was
taken in commit 9b12f050c7 ("char: pcmcia: remove all the drivers"),
and that has not been reverted, so it seems logical to continue this
process by removing more low-hanging fruit.
These three Bluetooth drivers have had no meaningful changes since
their status was discussed in 2022 [2], and are unlikely to have any
remaining users. The latest functional change to any of them was a
patch to bluecard_cs to fix LED blinking behavior in 2017. The other
two drivers have not had any meaningful changes made since 2007. Remove
them.
Note that even with these drivers removed, it is still possible to use
other PCMCIA Bluetooth cards that present themselves as a standard
serial port via serial_cs and hciattach while the serial_cs driver is
still present.

Remove the "michael_mic" crypto_shash algorithm, since it's no longer

It makes sense that no other users ever appeared: Michael MIC is an
insecure algorithm that is specific to WPA TKIP, which itself was an
interim security solution to replace the broken WEP standard.

Remove ansi_cprng, since it's obsolete and unused, as confirmed at
https://lore.kernel.org/r/aQxpnckYMgAAOLpZ@gondor.apana.org.au/
This was originally added in 2008, apparently as a FIPS approved random
number generator. Whether this has ever belonged upstream is
questionable. Either way, ansi_cprng is no longer usable for this
purpose, since it's been superseded by the more modern algorithms in
crypto/drbg.c, and FIPS itself no longer allows it. (NIST SP 800-131A
Rev 1 (2015) says that RNGs based on ANSI X9.31 will be disallowed after
2015. NIST SP 800-131A Rev 2 (2019) confirms they are now disallowed.)
Therefore, there is no reason to keep it around.

IDE subsystem has been deprecated since 2009 and the majority
(if not all) of Linux distributions have switched to use
libata for ATA support exclusively. However there are still
some users (mostly old or/and embedded non-x86 systems) that
have not converted from using IDE subsystem to libata PATA
drivers. This doesn't seem to be good thing in the long-term
for Linux as while there is less and less PATA systems left
in use:
* testing efforts are divided between two subsystems
* having duplicate drivers for same hardware confuses users
This patch converts spitz_defconfig to use libata PATA
drivers.

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.
