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.

a recent fc11 udev update on an 83xx board made root console login
disappear:
Updating : udev-141-8.fc11.ppc 32/83
udev: starting version 141
udev: deprecated sysfs layout; update the kernel or disable CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED;
some udev features will not work correctly
and sure enough, turning off SYSFS_DEPRECATED brings the login prompt back.

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.

This updates all the defconfigs in arch/powerpc/configs except iseries
and ps3, which were updated by the preceding commits.
This mostly takes the defaults, except that I turned on tickless idle
and high-resolution timers for everything, and turned off instrumentation
support and "Fair group CPU scheduler" for the smaller/embedded platforms.

When checking out the new NO_HZ support in powerpc, I noticed we never
slept for more than 2 seconds. It turns out SLAB has a 2 second per cpu
timer that causes this.
After switching to SLUB I see some nice 4 second sleeps which is the
limit on this POWER6 box (the decrementer ticks at 512MHz):
slept 4.19 sec
slept 4.19 sec
slept 4.19 sec
slept 4.19 sec
slept 3.96 sec
slept 3.80 sec
slept 2.99 sec
Since SLUB is now the default and some powerpc defconfigs already enable
it, lets enable SLUB across the board for consistency. While doing this
I also noticed that the maple defconfig has SLAB debugging enabled which
is sure to make your box nice and slow. Fix that too.

1. PCI and reset are factored out into pq2.c. I renamed them from m82xx
to pq2 because they won't work on the Integrated Host Processor line of
82xx chips (i.e. 8240, 8245, and such).
2. The PCI PIC, which is nominally board-specific, is used on multiple
boards, and thus is used into pq2ads-pci-pic.c.
3. The new CPM binding is used.
4. General cleanup.

Default config file for mpc8272ads (powerpc port).Though relevant bits went
in, it is required to keep proper default configuration for the target,
which seems to be missed initially.
