octeon: Add and set CPU type Octeon+ as default

2018-06-20T13:36:02+00:00

The lowest CPU type used by supported Octeon platform
is Octeon+ (EdgeRouter Lite) while EdgeRouter Pro/ER-8 uses
Octeon II which is backwards compatible with Octeon+.

OCTEON Plus family"

kernel: enable THIN_ARCHIVES by default

2018-05-22T05:55:20+00:00

THIN_ARCHIVES option is enabled by default in the kernel configuration
and no one target config disables it. So enable it by default and remove
this symbol from target specific configs to keep them light.

kernel: enable FUTEX_PI by default

2018-05-22T05:55:12+00:00

New FUTEX_PI configuration symbol enabled if FUTEX and RT_MUTEX symbols
are enabled. Both of these symbols are enabled by default in the
generic config, so enable FUTEX_PI by default too to keep platform
specific configs minimal.

kernel: enable EXPORTFS by default

2018-05-22T05:55:05+00:00

OVERLAY_FS config symbol selects EXPORTFS since 4.12 kernel, we have
OVERLAY_FS enabled by default, so enable EXPORTFS in the generic config
of 4.14 and remove this option from platform specific configs.

kernel: disable DRM_LIB_RANDOM by default

2018-05-22T05:54:57+00:00

DRM_LIB_RANDOM config symbol selected only by DRM_DEBUG_MM_SELFTEST
which is disable by default, so disable DRM_LIB_RANDOM by default too.

kernel: disable DMA_{NOOP|VIRT}_OPS by default

2018-05-22T05:54:49+00:00

These options do not used by any supported arch, so disable them by
default to make arch configs a bit more clean.

kernel: disable ARCH_WANTS_THP_SWAP by default

2018-05-22T05:54:42+00:00

Only one arch (x86_64) enables this option. So disable
ARCH_WANTS_THP_SWAP by default and remove referencies to it from all
configs (except x86_64) to make them clean.

target: disable CONFIG_PROC_PAGE_MONITOR on most targets

2018-01-13T14:04:15+00:00

Disable CONFIG_PROC_PAGE_MONITOR in most places and only keep it enabled
for virtual targets such as malta or potent ones like x86.

This saves up to 4KB of uncompressed kernel size and significantly
decreases CPU load under certain workloads.
