236dec0510 kconfig: tinyconfig: provide whole choice blocks to avoid warnings
Using "make tinyconfig" produces a couple of annoying warnings that show
up for build test machines all the time:

    .config:966:warning: override: NOHIGHMEM changes choice state
    .config:965:warning: override: SLOB changes choice state
    .config:963:warning: override: KERNEL_XZ changes choice state
    .config:962:warning: override: CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE changes choice state
    .config:933:warning: override: SLOB changes choice state
    .config:930:warning: override: CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE changes choice state
    .config:870:warning: override: SLOB changes choice state
    .config:868:warning: override: KERNEL_XZ changes choice state
    .config:867:warning: override: CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE changes choice state

I've made a previous attempt at fixing them and we discussed a number of
alternatives.

I tried changing the Makefile to use "merge_config.sh -n
$(fragment-list)" but couldn't get that to work properly.

This is yet another approach, based on the observation that we do want
to see a warning for conflicting 'choice' options, and that we can
simply make them non-conflicting by listing all other options as
disabled.  This is a trivial patch that we can apply independent of
plans for other changes.

27eb6622ab config: add android config fragments
Copy the config fragments from the AOSP common kernel android-4.4
branch.  It is becoming possible to run mainline kernels with Android,
but the kernel defconfigs don't work as-is and debugging missing config
options is a pain.  Adding the config fragments into the kernel tree,
makes configuring a mainline kernel as simple as:

  make ARCH=arm multi_v7_defconfig android-base.config android-recommended.config

The following non-upstream config options were removed:

  CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_QTAGUID
  CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_QUOTA2
  CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_QUOTA2_LOG
  CONFIG_PPPOLAC
  CONFIG_PPPOPNS
  CONFIG_SECURITY_PERF_EVENTS_RESTRICT
  CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_MTP
  CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_PTP
  CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_ACC
  CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_F_AUDIO_SRC
  CONFIG_USB_CONFIGFS_UEVENT
  CONFIG_INPUT_KEYCHORD
  CONFIG_INPUT_KEYRESET

6c6685055a kconfig: add xenconfig defconfig helper
This lets you build a kernel which can support xen dom0
or xen guests on i386, x86-64 and arm64 by just using:

   make xenconfig

You can start from an allnoconfig and then switch to xenconfig.
This also splits out the options which are available currently
to be built with x86 and 'make ARCH=arm64' under a shared config.

Technically xen supports a dom0 kernel and also a guest
kernel configuration but upon review with the xen team
since we don't have many dom0 options its best to just
combine these two into one.

A few generic notes: we enable both of these:

CONFIG_INET=y
CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF=y

although technically not required given you likely will
end up with a pretty useless system otherwise.

A few architectural differences worth noting:

$ make allnoconfig; make xenconfig > /dev/null ; \
	grep XEN .config > 64-bit-config
$ make ARCH=i386 allnoconfig; make ARCH=i386 xenconfig > /dev/null; \
	grep XEN .config > 32-bit-config
$ make ARCH=arm64 allnoconfig; make ARCH=arm64 xenconfig > /dev/null; \
	grep XEN .config > arm64-config

Since the options are already split up with a generic config and
architecture specific configs you anything on the x86 configs
are known to only work right now on x86. For instance arm64 doesn't
support MEMORY_HOTPLUG yet as such although we try to enabe it
generically arm64 doesn't have it yet, so we leave the xen
specific kconfig option XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG on x86's config
file to set expecations correctly.

Then on x86 we have differences between i386 and x86-64. The difference
between 64-bit-config and 32-bit-config is you don't get XEN_MCE_LOG as
this is only supported on 64-bit. You also do not get on i386
XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG, there does not seem to be any technical
reasons to not allow this but I gave up after a few attempts.

0da1d4a0b9 x86: Add "make tinyconfig" to configure the tiniest possible kernel
Since commit 5d2acfc7b9 ("kconfig: make
allnoconfig disable options behind EMBEDDED and EXPERT") in 3.15-rc1,
"make allnoconfig" disables every possible config option.

However, a few configuration options (CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE,
OPTIMIZE_INLINING) produce a smaller kernel when turned on, and a few
choices exist (compression, highmem, allocator) for which a non-default
option produces a smaller kernel.

Add a "tinyconfig" option, which starts from allnoconfig and then sets
these options to configure the tiniest possible kernel.  This provides a
better baseline for embedded systems or efforts to reduce kernel size.
