My intention with this series is merely to provide a cleanup in the
defconfigs, so that they do not include an non-existing configuration.
I know it is not harmful to let the CONFIG_MISC_DEVICES there, but
after my commit 7c5763 I think we should get rid of
CONFIG_MISC_DEVICES completely.
I saw that the ia64 Intel patch from this series was already applied
into mainline and I also got some other Acks from different
architectures.
