For 64-bit book3s the default should be 64K as that's what modern CPUs
are designed for.
The following defconfigs already set CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES:
cell_defconfig
pasemi_defconfig
powernv_defconfig
ppc64_defconfig
pseries_defconfig
skiroot_defconfig
The have the option removed from the defconfig, as it is now the
default.
The defconfigs that now need to set CONFIG_PPC_4K_PAGES to maintain
their existing behaviour are:
g5_defconfig
maple_defconfig
microwatt_defconfig
ps3_defconfig

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.
This commits stops building oprofile for powerpc and removes any
reference to it from directories in arch/powerpc/ apart from
arch/powerpc/oprofile, which will be removed in the next commit (this is
broken into two commits as the size of the commit became very big, ~5k
lines).
Note that the member "oprofile_cpu_type" in "struct cpu_spec" isn't
removed as it was also used by other parts of the code.

Yunhai Zhang recently fixed a VGA software scrollback bug in commit
ebfdfeeae8 ("vgacon: Fix for missing check in scrollback handling"),
but that then made people look more closely at some of this code, and
there were more problems on the vgacon side, but also the fbcon software
scrollback.
We don't really have anybody who maintains this code - probably because
nobody actually _uses_ it any more. Sure, people still use both VGA and
the framebuffer consoles, but they are no longer the main user
interfaces to the kernel, and haven't been for decades, so these kinds
of extra features end up bitrotting and not really being used.
So rather than try to maintain a likely unused set of code, I'll just
aggressively remove it, and see if anybody even notices. Maybe there
are people who haven't jumped on the whole GUI badnwagon yet, and think
it's just a fad. And maybe those people use the scrollback code.
If that turns out to be the case, we can resurrect this again, once
we've found the sucker^Wmaintainer for it who actually uses it.

This kernel configuration is basically enabling/disabling sr driver quirks
detection. While these quirks are for fairly rare devices (very old CD
burners, and a glucometer), the additional detection of these models is a
very minimal amount of code.
The logic behind the quirks is always built into the sr driver.
This also removes the config from all the defconfig files that are enabling
this already.

2. It is not recommended (help message: "This should not be used today

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.

Because powernv arrived after these other platforms, the defconfigs
didn't have PPC_POWERNV disabled, and being default y it gets turned on.
If we're going to bother having defconfigs for the specific platforms
then they should only build the code required for those platforms.
The grab bag of everything config is ppc64_defconfig.

Remove CONFIG_POWER4_ONLY, the option is badly named and only does two
things:
- It wraps the MMU segment table code. With feature fixups there is
little downside to compiling this in.
- It uses the newer mtocrf instruction in various assembly functions.
Instead of making this a compile option just do it at runtime via
a feature fixup.

Uwe Kleine-König reported:
while working on an defconfig (arm/mx27) I noticed that just updating
it[1] results in removing CONFIG_EEPROM_AT24=y. The reason is that
since commit
v2.6.36-5965-g5f2365d (misc devices: do not enable by default)
MISC_DEVICES isn't enabled anymore by default. So all defconfigs that
have CONFIG_SOME_SYMBOL=y (or =m) (with SOME_SYMBOL depending on
MISC_DEVICES) but not CONFIG_MISC_DEVICES=y suffer from the same
problem.
This restores those misc devices to the powerpc defconfigs.

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.
