Subject: [PATCH v2] init/Kconfig: fix EXPERT menu list

From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@...cle.com>

The EXPERT menu list was recently broken by the insertion of a
kconfig symbol (EMBEDDED) at the beginning of the EXPERT list of
kconfig items.  Broken by:

  commit 6a108a14fa356ef607be308b68337939e56ea94e
  Author: David Rientjes <rientjes@...gle.com>
  Date:   Thu Jan 20 14:44:16 2011 -0800
    kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT

Restore the EXPERT menu list -- don't inject a symbol (EMBEDDED)
that does not depend on EXPERT into the list.
