Subject: [PATCH v2 3/6] x86/cpu: Remove CONFIG_X86_SMAP and "nosmap"

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@...e.de>

Those were added as part of the SMAP enablement but SMAP is currently
an integral part of kernel proper and there's no need to disable it
anymore.

Rip out that functionality.

If still needed - clearcpuid=smap.
