Commit a2225d931f ("autofs: remove left-over autofs4 stubs")
promised the removal of the fs/autofs/Kconfig fragment for AUTOFS4_FS
within a couple of releases, but five years later this still has not
happened yet, and AUTOFS4_FS is still enabled in 63 defconfigs.
Get rid of it mechanically:
git grep -l CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS -- '*defconfig' |
xargs sed -i 's/AUTOFS4_FS/AUTOFS_FS/'
Also just remove the AUTOFS4_FS config option stub. Anybody who hasn't
regenerated their config file in the last five years will need to just
get the new name right when they do.

Commit 5d9db88376 ("efi: Add support for a UEFI variable filesystem")
dated Oct 5, 2012, introduced a new efivarfs pseudo-filesystem to
replace the efivars sysfs interface that was used up to that point to
expose EFI variables to user space.
The main problem with the sysfs interface was that it only supported up
to 1024 bytes of payload per file, whereas the underlying variables
themselves are only bounded by a platform specific per-variable and
global limit that is typically much higher than 1024 bytes.
The deprecated sysfs interface is only enabled on x86 and Itanium, other
EFI enabled architectures only support the efivarfs pseudo-filesystem.
So let's finally rip off the band aid, and drop the old interface
entirely. This will make it easier to refactor and clean up the
underlying infrastructure that is shared between efivars, efivarfs and
efi-pstore, and is long overdue for a makeover.

To quote Linus:
"EVERYBODY should have CONFIG_WERROR=y on at least x86-64 and other
serious architectures, unless you have some completely random

New compiler warnings are not acceptable."

With CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y enabled, 'uname' provides
much more useful output on debug kernels:
Before:
# CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO is not set
$ uname -a
Linux localhost 5.16.0-rc7+ #4563 SMP PREEMPT Thu Dec 30 08:28:38 CET 2021 x86_64 GNU/Linux
After:
# CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y
$ uname -a

This is particularly valuable during bisection, if we want to double check
the exact kernel version we are testing.
(Just remove the config line, the global Kconfig default for this is default-y.)

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.
