The "oprofile" user-space tools don't use the kernel OPROFILE support
any more, and haven't in a long time. User-space has been converted to
the perf interfaces.
Remove the old oprofile's architecture specific support.

Remove the CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH because:
1. It is disabled since commit 1be01d4a57 ("driver: base: Disable
CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER by default") as its dependency (UEVENT_HELPER) was
made default to 'n',
2. It is not recommended (help message: "This should not be used today
[...] creates a high system load") and was kept only for ancient
userland,
3. Certain userland specifically requests it to be disabled (systemd
README: "Legacy hotplug slows down the system and confuses udev").

This option was replaced by PAGE_COUNTER which is selected by MEMCG.

The ns_cgroup is an annoying cgroup at the namespace / cgroup frontier and
leads to some problems:
* cgroup creation is out-of-control
* cgroup name can conflict when pids are looping
* it is not possible to have a single process handling a lot of
namespaces without falling in a exponential creation time
* we may want to create a namespace without creating a cgroup
The ns_cgroup was replaced by a compatibility flag 'clone_children',
where a newly created cgroup will copy the parent cgroup values.
The userspace has to manually create a cgroup and add a task to
the 'tasks' file.
This patch removes the ns_cgroup as suggested in the following thread:
https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018616.html
The 'cgroup_clone' function is removed because it is no longer used.
This is a userspace-visible change. Commit 45531757b4 ("cgroup: notify
ns_cgroup deprecated") (merged into 2.6.27) caused the kernel to emit a
printk warning users that the feature is planned for removal. Since that
time we have heard from XXX users who were affected by this.

As the help for the config option suggests, this option really shouldn't
be set by default for any recent distribution as it changes the layout
of sysfs. I spotted this while running debian when udev got very
confused by the sysfs layout and failed to create some device nodes.

* 'i2c-for-linus' of git://jdelvare.pck.nerim.net/jdelvare-2.6:
i2c: Warn on deprecated binding model use
eeprom: More consistent symbol names
eeprom: Move 93cx6 eeprom driver to /drivers/misc/eeprom
spi: Move at25 (for SPI eeproms) to /drivers/misc/eeprom
i2c: Move old eeprom driver to /drivers/misc/eeprom
i2c: Move at24 to drivers/misc/eeprom
i2c: Quilt tree has moved
i2c: Delete many unused adapter IDs
i2c: Delete 10 unused driver IDs
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.

This adds basic support for SH-X3 SMP (4 CPUs).
More IPI and cache debugging is necessary, mostly interfacing the
d-cache coherency and the I-cache broadcast invalidates. Only for
testing at present!
