Essentially remove CONFIG_ARC_PLAT_SIM
There is no need for any platform specific code, just the board DTS
match strings which we can include unconditionally

Now when we have properly working performance counters in nSIM
even with interrupt support (fix should be a part of upcoming
nSIM engineering build 2016.12-005) we may enable perf support
by default for all platforms that use nSIM for ARC cores simulation.
Note 1: PCT node was missing for some reason in nsimosci.dts
while all other nSIM-related .dts files already had
PCT node for quite some time, so adding it now.
Note 2: All defconfigs were regenerated with "make savedefconfig"
which led to some clean-ups in nsimosci_hs_smp_defconfig:
CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y was removed because it is
automatically selected now by DRM.

With required ARC PGU updates that allow it to be used on simulation
platforms we may finally utilize ARC PGU in nSIM OSCI virtual platforms
with modern Linux kernels.

Since ezchip network driver was adapted to little endian architecture
this patch provides the corresponding arch/arc/{boot/dts,configs}/ updates so
we can switch over to this device-model/driver for OSCI platform.

The problem is with CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN=y we still needed .config
fixup to override the the defconfig prefix to arceb-linux-
So remove these from defconfig and let user pass this via CROSS_COMPILE
environment var or use the default for ENDIAN (per previous patch)
No other arch carries them in defconfigs anyways !

Even though DEVTMPFS is required when our pre-built initramfs
is used it is not the case in general. It is perfectly possible
to use initramfs with device nodes already populated or there
could be other usages, see discussion below for more detials:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.embedded.openwrt.devel/37819/focus=37821
This change removes mentioned dependency from arch/arc/Kconfig
updating instead those defconfigs that are usually used with this
kind of pre-build initramfs.
And while at it all touched defconfigs were regenerated via
savedefconfig and some options were removed:
* USB is selected by other options implicitly
* VGA_CONSOLE is disableb for ARC since
031e29b587
* EXT3_FS automatically selects EXT4_FS
* MTDxxx and JFFS2_FS make no sense for AXS because
AXS NAND controller is not upstreamed
* NET_OSCI_LAN is not in upstream as well
* ARCPGU_xxx options make no sense because ARC PGU is not yet
in upstream and when it gets there all config options would
be taken from devicetree

When building kernel with buildroot built toolchain, CROSS_COMPILE
currently needs adjustment even if minor. This is because the defconfigs
prefer "arc-linux-uclibc-" prefix from hand built (non buildroot) toolchain
while buildroot provides "arc-buildroot-linux-uclibc-"
To avoid this use the common "arc-linux-" prefix which is provided by
buildroot and has also been in hand built tools for quite some time.
