As discussed at LSF/MM [1] [2] and with no objections raised there,
deprecate the SLAB allocator. Rename the user-visible option so that
users with CONFIG_SLAB=y get a new prompt with explanation during make
oldconfig, while make olddefconfig will just switch to SLUB.
In all defconfigs with CONFIG_SLAB=y remove the line so those also
switch to SLUB. Regressions due to the switch should be reported to
linux-mm and slab maintainers.

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").

Since commit e334cd69fa ("Move CONFIG_DEVKMEM default to n") we no
longer need to set CONFIG_DEVKMEM in our defconfigs.

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.

The AppliedMicro APM8018X embedded processor targets embedded applications that
require low power and a small footprint. It features a PowerPC 405 processor
core built in a 65nm low-power CMOS process with a five-stage pipeline executing
up to one instruction per cycle. The family has 128-kbytes of on-chip memory,
a 128-bit local bus and on-chip DDR2 SDRAM controller with 16-bit interface.
