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:

The score architecture used a number of old system calls for compatibility
with a traditional libc port, all architectures that got added later
skip these. With score out of the way, we can finally clean up the
syscall list to no longer provide these.

Unlike system call numbers the assignment of si_codes has never had a
reason to be made per architecture. Some architectures have had unique
conditions to report and reporting those conditions needed new si_codes.
Nothing has ever needed si_codes to have different values on different
architectures. The si_code space is vast so even with defining all
si_codes on all architectures there is no danger in running out of
si_code values.
The history of the si_codes BUS_MCEERR_AR, BUS_MCEER_AO, SEGV_BNDERR,
and SEGV_PKUERR show that a need of one architecture frequently becomes
a need of another architecture which makes sharing si_codes between
architectures a positive benefit and something to be encouraged.
Where there are no conflicts with the historical ia64 arch specific
si_codes and any other si_codes make them generic si_codes. We might
need them on another architecture someday.
This leaves only the good example of arch generic si_codes in the kernel
for future architectures and architecture enhancments to follow.
Without bad examples to follow it should be easy to avoid the mistakes
of the past.

Tile was the only remaining architecture to implement alloc_remap(),

The CONFIG_MPU option was only defined on blackfin, and that architecture
is now being removed, so the respective code can be simplified.
A lot of other microcontrollers have an MPU, but I suspect that if we
want to bring that support back, we'd do it differently anyway.

The port was added back in 2000 so it's no longer even a good source
of inspiration for newer ports (if it ever was)
The last SoC (ARTPEC-3) with a CRIS main CPU was launched in 2008.
Coupled with time and working developer board hardware being
in low supply, it's time to drop the port from Linux.
So long and thanks for all the fish!

The Tile architecture port was added by Chris Metcalf in 2010, and
maintained until early 2018 when he orphaned it due to his departure
from Mellanox, and nobody else stepped up to maintain it. The product
line is still around in the form of the BlueField SoC, but no longer
uses the Tile architecture.
There are also still products for sale with Tile-GX SoCs, notably the
Mikrotik CCR router family. The products all use old (linux-3.3) kernels
with lots of patches and won't be upgraded by their manufacturers. There
have been efforts to port both OpenWRT and Debian to these, but both
projects have stalled and are very unlikely to be continued in the future.
Given that we are reasonably sure that nobody is still using the port
with an upstream kernel any more, it seems better to remove it now while
the port is in a good shape than to let it bitrot for a few years first.

The Analog Devices Blackfin port was added in 2007 and was rather
active for a while, but all work on it has come to a standstill
over time, as Analog have changed their product line-up.
Aaron Wu confirmed that the architecture port is no longer relevant,
and multiple people suggested removing blackfin independently because
of some of its oddities like a non-working SMP port, and the amount of
duplication between the chip variants, which cause extra work when
doing cross-architecture changes.

The Sunplus S+core architecture was added in 2009 by Chen Liqin,
who has been co-maintaining it with Lennox Wu <lennox.wu@gmail.com>
since then, but after they both left the company, nobody else has shown
any interest in the port and it has seen almost no activity other than
tree-wide changes.
The gcc port was removed a few years ago due to the inactivity.
While the sunplus website still advertises products with unspecified
RISC cores that might be S+core based, it's very clear that the Linux
port is completely abandoned at this point.
This removes all files related to the architecture.

The Mitsubishi/Renesas m32r architecture has been around for many years,
but the Linux port has been obsolete for a very long time as well, with
the last significant updates done for linux-2.6.14.
While some m32r microcontrollers are still being marketed by Renesas,
those are apparently no longer possible to support, mainly due to the
lack of an external memory interface.
Hirokazu Takata was the maintainer until the architecture got marked
Orphaned in 2014.

The Fujitsu FRV kernel port has been around for a long time, but has not
seen regular updates in several years and instead was marked 'Orphaned'
in 2016 by long-time maintainer David Howells.
The SoC product line apparently is apparently still around in the form
of the Socionext Milbeaut image processor, but this one no longer uses
the FRV CPU cores.
This removes all FRV specific files from the kernel.

Remove metag architecture
These patches remove the metag architecture and tightly dependent
drivers from the kernel. With the 4.16 kernel the ancient gcc 4.2.4
based metag toolchain we have been using is hitting compiler bugs, so
now seems a good time to drop it altogether.
