Thomas Petazzoni 6211c9e381 arch/Config.in.arm: drop support for iwmmxt architecture variant
This architecture variant is broken in GCC, causing build failures:

../../../libgcc/config/arm/unwind-arm.c:467:1: error: unrecognizable insn:
  467 | }
      | ^
(insn 2 4 3 2 (set (reg/v/f:SI 118 [ p ])
        (reg:SI 0 r0 [ p ])) "../../../libgcc/config/arm/unwind-arm.c":456:1 -1
     (nil))
during RTL pass: vregs
../../../libgcc/config/arm/unwind-arm.c:467:1: internal compiler error: in extract_insn, at recog.c:2770

Reported to the GCC developers, the feedback was "iwmmxt support is
definitely bitrotten and most likely should be removed from GCC.".

See:

  https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=106972#c1

So this commit simply drops support for iwmmxt, which anyway is
probably barely used nowadays: it's for old Marvell PXA cores that
implemented a special SIMD instruction set. The BR2_xscale option can
be used instead, it's just that it won't use this SIMD instruction
set.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
