There are very few ISA drivers left that rely on the static probing from
drivers/net/Space.o. Make them all select a new CONFIG_NETDEV_LEGACY_INIT
symbol, and drop the entire probe logic when that is disabled.

The 9 drivers that are called from Space.c are the same set that
calls netdev_boot_setup_check().

<title>treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a7f7f6248d9740d710fd6bd190293fe5e16410ac</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

  a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
  b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
  c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
  d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
  e) 1 tab + '---help---'    (correct indentation)
  f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
  g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

  $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

The help text refers to Western Digital instead of National
Semiconductor 8390, presumably because it was copied from the former.

[Resent to net instead of net-next - may clash with Anders Roxell's patch
series addressing duplicate module names]

Commit 31dd83b96641 ("net-next: phy: new Asix Electronics PHY driver")
introduced a new PHY driver drivers/net/phy/asix.c that causes a module
name conflict with a pre-existiting driver (drivers/net/usb/asix.c).

The PHY driver is used by the X-Surf 100 ethernet card driver, and loaded
by that driver via its PHY ID. A rename of the driver looks unproblematic.

Rename PHY driver to ax88796b.c in order to resolve name conflict.

Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann:
 "This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv,
  m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device
  drivers.

  I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to
  ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely
  unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the
  respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream,
  but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users.

  In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
  different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in
  charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
  ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
  CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It
  seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not
  used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In
  contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively
  maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.

  [ See the new nds32 port merged in the previous commit for the next
    generation of "one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU
    microarchitecture and a software ecosystem"   - Linus ]

  The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
  https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
  marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I
  made sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile,
  mn10300, and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old
  kernels, but those products will never be updated to newer kernel
  releases.

  After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
  gcc support:

   - unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
     maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
     in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.

   - openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing
     their support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first
     place. They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some
     degree, but complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1.
     Csky posted their first kernel patch set last week, their situation
     will be similar

  [ Palmer Dabbelt points out that RISC-V support is in mainline gcc
    since gcc-7, although gcc-7.3.0 is the recommended minimum  - Linus ]"

This really says it all:

<content type='text'>
The modular driver supports only one card, just like the built-in
driver.

Note that this limitation is a problem which affects all Nubus card
drivers, because they have to do all their own bus matching, because
Nubus still lacks the necessary driver model support.
