powerpc/configs: Remove ReiserFS from defconfig

ReiserFS has been deprecated for a year and a half, yet is still built
as part of a defconfig kernel.

According to commit eb103a51640e ("reiserfs: Deprecate reiserfs"), the
filesystem is slated to be removed in 2025. Remove it from the defconfig
profiles now, as part of its deprecation process.

arch/*/configs/*defconfig: Replace AUTOFS4_FS by AUTOFS_FS

Commit a2225d931f75 ("autofs: remove left-over autofs4 stubs")
promised the removal of the fs/autofs/Kconfig fragment for AUTOFS4_FS
within a couple of releases, but five years later this still has not
happened yet, and AUTOFS4_FS is still enabled in 63 defconfigs.

Get rid of it mechanically:

git grep -l CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS -- '*defconfig' |
xargs sed -i 's/AUTOFS4_FS/AUTOFS_FS/'

Also just remove the AUTOFS4_FS config option stub. Anybody who hasn't
regenerated their config file in the last five years will need to just
get the new name right when they do.

arch: powerpc: Stop building and using oprofile

The "oprofile" user-space tools don't use the kernel OPROFILE support
any more, and haven't in a long time. User-space has been converted to
the perf interfaces.

This commits stops building oprofile for powerpc and removes any
reference to it from directories in arch/powerpc/ apart from
arch/powerpc/oprofile, which will be removed in the next commit (this is
broken into two commits as the size of the commit became very big, ~5k
lines).

Note that the member "oprofile_cpu_type" in "struct cpu_spec" isn't
removed as it was also used by other parts of the code.

scsi: sr: remove references to BLK_DEV_SR_VENDOR, leave it enabled

This kernel configuration is basically enabling/disabling sr driver quirks
detection. While these quirks are for fairly rare devices (very old CD
burners, and a glucometer), the additional detection of these models is a
very minimal amount of code.

The logic behind the quirks is always built into the sr driver.

This also removes the config from all the defconfig files that are enabling
this already.

In commit 73d8ef76006b ("Input: mousedev - stop offering PS/2 to userspace by

Evdev interface has been available for many years and by now everyone
is switched to using it, so let's stop offering /dev/input/mouseN
and /dev/psaux by default.

powerpc: convert ppc64e_defconfig to use libata PATA drivers

IDE subsystem has been deprecated since 2009 and the majority
(if not all) of Linux distributions have switched to use
libata for ATA support exclusively. However there are still
some users (mostly old or/and embedded non-x86 systems) that
have not converted from using IDE subsystem to libata PATA
drivers. This doesn't seem to be good thing in the long-term
for Linux as while there is less and less PATA systems left
in use:

* testing efforts are divided between two subsystems

* having duplicate drivers for same hardware confuses users

This patch converts ppc64e_defconfig to use libata PATA
drivers.

powerpc: Update all configs using savedefconfig

It looks like it's ~4 years since we updated some of these, so do a bulk

Verified that the before and after generated configs are exactly the

Which begs the question why update them? The answer is that it can be
confusing when the stored defconfig drifts too far from the generated
result.
