Documentation: arch-support: remove obsolete architectures
A number of architecture ports are obsolete and getting dropped, so we no longer want to track the respective features. We already removed the lines for metag and mn10300, this does the same edits for all the others. For the remaining 21 architectures, this shows how many are known to implement each given feature: 19 time/modern-timekeeping/arch-support.txt 19 time/clockevents/arch-support.txt 15 core/tracehook/arch-support.txt 14 core/generic-idle-thread/arch-support.txt 13 locking/lockdep/arch-support.txt 12 io/dma-api-debug/arch-support.txt 11 debug/kgdb/arch-support.txt 10 time/virt-cpuacct/arch-support.txt 9 debug/kretprobes/arch-support.txt 9 debug/kprobes/arch-support.txt 8 vm/THP/arch-support.txt 8 vm/pte_special/arch-support.txt 8 vm/numa-memblock/arch-support.txt 8 io/sg-chain/arch-support.txt 7 perf/kprobes-event/arch-support.txt 7 locking/rwsem-optimized/arch-support.txt 7 debug/gcov-profile-all/arch-support.txt 7 core/jump-labels/arch-support.txt 7 core/BPF-JIT/arch-support.txt 6 vm/ELF-ASLR/arch-support.txt 6 time/context-tracking/arch-support.txt 6 seccomp/seccomp-filter/arch-support.txt 6 debug/stackprotector/arch-support.txt 5 time/irq-time-acct/arch-support.txt 5 io/dma-contiguous/arch-support.txt 5 debug/uprobes/arch-support.txt 4 vm/ioremap_prot/arch-support.txt 4 time/arch-tick-broadcast/arch-support.txt 4 perf/perf-stackdump/arch-support.txt 4 perf/perf-regs/arch-support.txt 3 debug/KASAN/arch-support.txt 2 vm/PG_uncached/arch-support.txt 2 vm/huge-vmap/arch-support.txt 2 sched/numa-balancing/arch-support.txt 2 sched/membarrier-sync-core/arch-support.txt 2 locking/cmpxchg-local/arch-support.txt 2 debug/optprobes/arch-support.txt 2 debug/kprobes-on-ftrace/arch-support.txt 1 vm/TLB/arch-support.txt 1 locking/queued-spinlocks/arch-support.txt 1 locking/queued-rwlocks/arch-support.txt 1 debug/user-ret-profiler/arch-support.txt 0 lib/strncasecmp/arch-support.txt Note that the list does not include riscv or nds32 yet, these still need to be added.

Linux is easily portable to most general-purpose 32- or 64-bit architectures
as long as they have a paged memory management unit (PMMU) and a port of the
