Enable support for DMI decoding in the kernel so that we can access
manufacturer and model information via sysfs.
Also remove redundant per-subtarget DMI overrides and preset a few
previously unset symbols popping up due to the now enabled DMI support.

This enables booting from devices that use an ATI PATA controller for
the boot device, such as the embedded CF cards in Fujitsu-Siemens Futro
thin-clients.

copied target/linux/x86/config-3.14 and target/linux/x86/patches-3.14 to
3.18 equivalents and then tweaked until it built.
Tested on alix2, soekris net4826 and soekris net4521.
Still having trouble with net4826 booting from Grub, alix2 and net4521
are fine.

The pata-cs5535/pata-cs5536 driver is actually fairly rare: it only gets used on embedded platforms. Therefore, we remove it from the generic x86 configuration.
Also, add definitions for other useful geode modules (high-res timers, MFGPT timers, etc).

This patch brings up the net5501 platform.
Note that the x86/ target included support for all x86/ class
processors. That's not technically correct. This should be constrained
only to the "generic" subtarget. Every x86-class target that isn't
generic should be able to select only the optimizations/capabilities
applicable to that architectural variant.
It's also assumed that all x86 processors have keyboard & mouse ports,
ISA, DMI, ACPI... the embedded ones typically don't. Again, moving
that to the generic subtarget.
Fortunately, this was a fairly benign tweak.
The net5501 board includes the following logic:
Geode/LX processor
CS5535 super-I/O chip
PC87360 sensor chip
Via Rhine Ethernet controllers
Via Sata controllers
USB, LEDS, I2C
