Subject: [PATCH v5 15/22] Remove CONFIG_EXT2_FS_XIP

The fewer Kconfig options we have the better.  Use the generic CONFIG_FS_XIP
to enable XIP support in ext2 as well as in the core.

+	  Execute in place (XIP) can be used on memory-backed block devices.
+	  If the block device supports XIP and the filesystem supports XIP,
+	  then you can avoid using the pagecache to buffer I/Os.  Turning
+	  on this option will compile in support for XIP; you will need to
+	  mount the filesystem using the -o xip option.
