c6x: remove architecture
The c6x architecture was added to the kernel in 2011 at a time when running Linux on DSPs was widely seen as the logical evolution. It appears the trend has gone back to running Linux on Arm based SoCs with DSP, using a better supported software ecosystem, and having better real-time behavior for the DSP code. An example of this is TI's own Keystone2 platform. The upstream kernel port appears to no longer have any users. Mark Salter remained avaialable to review patches, but mentioned that he no longer has access to working hardware himself. Without any users, it's best to just remove the code completely to reduce the work for cross-architecture code changes. Many thanks to Mark for maintaining the code for the past ten years.

-config C6X_BIG_KERNEL
- bool "Build a big kernel"
- help
- The C6X function call instruction has a limited range of +/- 2MiB.
- This is sufficient for most kernels, but some kernel configurations
- with lots of compiled-in functionality may require a larger range
- for function calls. Use this option to have the compiler generate
- function calls with 32-bit range. This will make the kernel both
- larger and slower.
-
- If unsure, say N.

- On some architectures there is currently no way for the boot loader

- supply some command-line options at build time by entering them
- here.

-config CPU_BIG_ENDIAN
- bool "Build big-endian kernel"
- default n
- help
- Say Y if you plan on running a kernel in big-endian mode.
- Note that your board must be properly built and your board
- port must properly enable any big-endian related features
- of your chipset/board/processor.

-config FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER
- int "Maximum zone order"
- default "13"
- help
- The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
- blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
- pages. This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
- keeps in the memory allocator. If you need to allocate very large
- blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
- increase this value.
-
- This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
- a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.
