In 3.7, 8250 was unintentionally renamed to 8250_core. This happened in
the commit 835d844d1a (8250_pnp: do pnp probe before legacy probe).
This made 8250.<xxxx> module options effectively defunct. Instead,
8250_core.<xxxx> worked.
In 3.9, the commit f2b8dfd9e4 (serial: 8250: Keep 8250.<xxxx> module
options functional after driver rename) made the original options work
again by introducing a hack.
Later in 3.9, the commit 9196d8acd7 (TTY: 8250, revert module name
change) changed the module name back to 8250 (from 8250_core). Since
then, the hack was there to support the transient 8250_core.<xxxx>
options. Those were present only in the 3.7..3.9 range.
These transient options were deprecated by 9326b047e4 (TTY: 8250,
deprecated 8250_core.* options) in v3.9 too.
Now, after those 12 years, it is time to get rid of this hack
completely.

Instead of exposing the powerpc-optimized SHA-1 code via
powerpc-specific crypto_shash algorithms, instead just implement the
sha1_blocks() library function. This is much simpler, it makes the
SHA-1 library functions be powerpc-optimized, and it fixes the
longstanding issue where the powerpc-optimized SHA-1 code was disabled
by default. SHA-1 still remains available through crypto_shash, but
individual architectures no longer need to handle it.
Note: to see the diff from arch/powerpc/crypto/sha1-spe-glue.c to
lib/crypto/powerpc/sha1.h, view this commit with 'git show -M10'.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
- A large series adding wrappers for our interrupt handlers, so that
irq/nmi/user tracking can be isolated in the wrappers rather than
spread in each handler.
- Conversion of the 32-bit syscall handling into C.
- A series from Nick to streamline our TLB flushing when using the
Radix MMU.
- Switch to using queued spinlocks by default for 64-bit server CPUs.
- A rework of our PCI probing so that it happens later in boot, when
more generic infrastructure is available.
- Two small fixes to allow 32-bit little-endian processes to run on
64-bit kernels.
- Other smaller features, fixes & cleanups.

The AKEBONO config has various selects under it, including some with
user-selectable dependencies, which means those dependencies can be
disabled. This leads to warnings from Kconfig.
This can be seen with eg:
$ make allnoconfig
$ ./scripts/config --file build~/.config -k -e CONFIG_44x -k -e CONFIG_PPC_47x -e CONFIG_AKEBONO
$ make olddefconfig

The problem is that AKEBONO is using select to enable things that are
not true dependencies, but rather things you probably want enabled in
an AKEBONO kernel. That is what a defconfig is for.
So drop those selects and instead move those symbols into the
defconfig. This fixes all the kconfig warnings, and the result of make
44x/akebono_defconfig is the same before and after the patch.

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.

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").

In commit 961518259b ("rcu: Enable RCU tracepoints by default to aid
in debugging"), CONFIG_RCU_TRACE was made default y (if CONFIG_TREE_RCU=y,
which it is for some of our configs).
That in turn causes CONFIG_TREE_RCU_TRACE to be enabled, which selects
CONFIG_DEBUG_FS. The end result is that CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is forced on,
meaning we don't have to enable it in some of our configs.

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.
