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 storcenter_defconfig to use libata PATA
drivers.

It looks like it's ~4 years since we updated some of these, so do a bulk
update.
Verified that the before and after generated configs are exactly the
same.
Which begs the question why update them? The answer is that it can be
confusing when the stored defconfig drifts too far from the generated
result.

This patch removes CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONS in config files for powerpc.

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.

CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED can cause issues with newer distros and should not

Defining flash partition table in platform code is deprecated, and due to
recent changes linkstation and storcenter do not compile any more with
their default configurations because of undefined references to
physmap_set_partitions(). Instead of fixing them by using the correct
kernel configuration macro in preprocessor conditional, remove partition
table definitions altogether. Instead add support for partition definition
on the command-line and in device tree to the default configurations.

Now that all EEPROM drivers live in the same place, let's harmonize
their symbol names.
Also fix eeprom's dependencies, it definitely needs sysfs, and is no
longer experimental after many years in the kernel tree.

unset CONFIG_PCI_LEGACY in the defconfigs as none of them enable
ISDN drivers which seem to be the only place we are using pci_find_device

Since we are updated defconfigs I went ahead and moved the
asp8347_defconfig under 83xx/ and the mpc8536_ds_defconfig under
85xx/ as that is where they should have been to start with.
