David Rientjes 6a108a14fa kconfig: rename CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT
The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel.  A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).

Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.

config VGA_ARB
bool "VGA Arbitration" if EXPERT
default y
depends on PCI
help
Some "legacy" VGA devices implemented on PCI typically have the same
hard-decoded addresses as they did on ISA. When multiple PCI devices
are accessed at same time they need some kind of coordination. Please
see Documentation/vgaarbiter.txt for more details. Select this to
enable VGA arbiter.
config VGA_ARB_MAX_GPUS
int "Maximum number of GPUs"
default 16
depends on VGA_ARB
help
Reserves space in the kernel to maintain resource locking for
multiple GPUS. The overhead for each GPU is very small.
config VGA_SWITCHEROO
bool "Laptop Hybrid Graphics - GPU switching support"
depends on X86
depends on ACPI
help
Many laptops released in 2008/9/10 have two GPUs with a multiplexer
to switch between them. This adds support for dynamic switching when
X isn't running and delayed switching until the next logoff. This
feature is called hybrid graphics, ATI PowerXpress, and Nvidia
HybridPower.
