David Rientjes 6a108a14fa kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel.  A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).

Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.

Enabling this option will make the kernel run more efficiently
on logically-partitioned pSeries systems which use shared
processors, that is, which share physical processors between
two or more partitions.

Provides interface to platform energy management capabilities
on supported PSERIES platforms.

Provide system capacity information via human readable
<key word>=<value> pairs through a /proc/ppc64/lparcfg interface.
config PPC_PSERIES_DEBUG
depends on PPC_PSERIES && PPC_EARLY_DEBUG
bool "Enable extra debug logging in platforms/pseries"
help
Say Y here if you want the pseries core to produce a bunch of
debug messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a
problem with the pseries core and want to see more of what is
going on. This does not enable debugging in lpar.c, which must
be manually done due to its verbosity.
default y
config PPC_SMLPAR
bool "Support for shared-memory logical partitions"
depends on PPC_PSERIES
select LPARCFG
default n
help
Select this option to enable shared memory partition support.
With this option a system running in an LPAR can be given more
memory than physically available and will allow firmware to
balance memory across many LPARs.
config CMM
tristate "Collaborative memory management"
depends on PPC_SMLPAR
default y
help
Select this option, if you want to enable the kernel interface
to reduce the memory size of the system. This is accomplished
by allocating pages of memory and put them "on hold". This only
makes sense for a system running in an LPAR where the unused pages
will be reused for other LPARs. The interface allows firmware to
balance memory across many LPARs.
config DTL
bool "Dispatch Trace Log"
depends on PPC_SPLPAR && DEBUG_FS
help
SPLPAR machines can log hypervisor preempt & dispatch events to a
kernel buffer. Saying Y here will enable logging these events,
which are accessible through a debugfs file.
Say N if you are unsure.
