Subject: [PATCH 2/9] arm: remove EISA kconfig option

No arm config enables EISA, and arm does not include drivers/eisa/Kconfig
which provides support for things like PCI to EISA bridges, so it is most
likely dead.

If this is wrong we will be able to resurrect it easily by selecting
HAVE_EISA for the right arm configs after this series.
