Subject: [PATCH 3.2 128/131] x86, espfix: Make it possible to disable
 16-bit support

3.2.63-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@...or.com>

commit 34273f41d57ee8d854dcd2a1d754cbb546cb548f upstream.

Embedded systems, which may be very memory-size-sensitive, are
extremely unlikely to ever encounter any 16-bit software, so make it
a CONFIG_EXPERT option to turn off support for any 16-bit software
whatsoever.
