This config has no prospect of going into the future (by using DTS), and
qemu doesn't do a good job at emulating it (networking problems), so
drop it.
All of the ARM SMP testing duties are now in the vexpress defconfig
which is better suited/supported.

We can use the vexpress arm defconfig to test SMP features in Qemu.
So document the necessary invocation changes to account for this, in
preparation of the arm nuri defconfig removal.

Keep arm_nuri on 3.10.x for the usual reasons.
Keep mips & mipsel (32 bits) on 4.3.x because 4.4.x fails to boot
properly (kernel stuck after the CPU cache info).

ppc-mpc8544ds: switch to custom kernel config since the new 4.3-shipped
mpc85xx_basic_defconfig doesn't work with Qemu.
Incidentally while cleaning it up it now seems to work fine with newer
qemu versions.
sparc64_sun4u: ditch ne2k driver since it's useless, and add the e1000
driver which works fine.
x86: stick to 4.2.x kernels since 4.3 doesn't work right with uclibc
(any variant) based toolchains.
