um: Remove SKAS3/4 support
Before we had SKAS0 UML had two modes of operation TT (tracing thread) and SKAS3/4 (separated kernel address space). TT was known to be insecure and got removed a long time ago. SKAS3/4 required a few (3 or 4) patches on the host side which never went mainline. The last host patch is 10 years old. With SKAS0 mode (separated kernel address space using 0 host patches), default since 2005, SKAS3/4 is obsolete and can be removed. Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>
