This set the CONFIG_FRAME_WARN option depending on some target settings.
It will use the default from the upstream kernel and not the hard coded
value of 1024 now.

This allows loading modules with large memory requirements, recently needed
while testing on armvirt/32. Past forum discussions [1] and bug reports [2]
also raised this and the ipq806x target already set it in response [3].
Given this increases kernel image size by only ~1KB, is generally useful on
multi-platform kernels, and enabled by default on upstream arm32 Linux, add
it to the generic config.
The setting has similar utility on arm64, is a requirement for KASLR, and
already enabled on most OpenWrt aarch64 targets, so pull this into the
top-level generic config.

Kernel setting CONFIG_IO_URING supports high-performance I/O for file
access and servers, generally for more performant platforms, and adds
~45 KB to kernel sizes. The need for this on less "beefy" devices is
questionable, as is the size cost considering many platforms have kernel
size limits which require tricky repartitioning if outgrown. The size
cost is also large relative to the ~180 KB bump expected between major
OpenWRT kernel releases.
No OpenWrt packages have hard dependencies on this; samba4 and mariadb
can take advantage if available (+KERNEL_IO_URING:liburing) but
otherwise build and work fine.
Since CONFIG_IO_URING is already managed via the KERNEL_IO_URING setting
in Config-kernel.in (default Y), remove it from those target configs
which unconditionally enable it, and update the defaults to enable it
conditionally only on more powerful 64-bit x86 and arm devices. It may
still be manually enabled as needed for high-performance custom builds.

This deactivates the CONFIG_COMPAT kernel option.
With CONFIG_COMPAT the kernel will provide syscall interfaces for arm32
binaries in addition to the interfaces needed for arm64 binaries.
In OpenWrt the complete userspace is compiled for this specific
architecture and support for 32 bit ARM applications is not needed.
This reduces the size and the attack surface for the systems.
On all other targets CONFIG_COMPAT is already deactivated.

The legacy (BSD) PTY support could open security problems in a system,
We do not need them in OpenWrt, deactivate this option in all targets.
Debian also deactivates this option.

This activates the CONFIG_ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN option for all arm64
kernels by default.
The CONFIG_ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN option prevents the kernel form accessing
user space memory directly. This makes it harder to exploit the kernel.
This is activated by default and was already activate on all other arm64
targets before.

This activates CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY for the remaining targets. This
adds additional checks in the copy_from_user() and copy_to_user()
functions.
This was not activated for ARCHS38 before because of a bug in the Linux
kernel 5.4 till 5.14, which as fixed and is described here:
https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/linux/issues/15
I do not know why this was deactivated for mt7629 and rockchip.

Endianness depends on CPU architecture. CONFIG_CPU_(BIG/LITTLE)_ENDIAN should
be enabled on target or subtarget based on SoC architecture.
Fixes warning:
$ make kernel_oldconfig CONFIG_TARGET=subtarget
...
.config:1008:warning: override: CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN changes choice state
....
Summary:
- ARC - only the CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN symbol is defined for this architeture.
If it is disabled then the processor operates in LITTLE_ENDIAN mode (default),
- ARM32 - CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN symbol available since kernel 5.19. This
option should be enabled after OpenWRT moves to kernel 6.x. After refreshing
the kernel, the symbol disappears,
- ARM64 - enabled CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN,
- MIPS - enabled relevant symbols,
- POWERPC - enabled CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN,
- UML - Symbols are not defined for this architecture,
- X86 - always little endian. Symbols are not defined for this architecture.

This adds some missing IOMMU related options for x86/64 and moves some
of them to generic for all targets.
On x86 IOMMU_DEFAULT_DMA_LAZY is used by default, on all other platforms
IOMMU_DEFAULT_DMA_STRICT is the default. we just follow the default
kernel configuration here.
