Hauke Mehrtens 57ec21ef3d kernel: Activate CONFIG_SYN_COOKIES for all targets
Some targets deactivated CONFIG_SYN_COOKIES, for unknown reasons, use
the default setting from the generic configuration which activates
CONFIG_SYN_COOKIES.

This should prevent SYN flooding.

Hauke Mehrtens 89f8a8be7f kernel: Deactivate CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK
CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK disables the heap randomization which is only needed
for very old and ancient user space applications, I am not aware that we
run any of these, just deactivate this option for these targets to allow
heap randomization.

Felix Fietkau 212aa33226 kernel: enable memory compaction
Compaction is the only memory management component to form high order (larger
physically contiguous) memory blocks reliably. The page allocator relies on
compaction heavily and the lack of the feature can lead to unexpected OOM
killer invocations for high order memory requests. You shouldn't disable this
option unless there really is a strong reason for it.

Mathias Kresin cf7154db07 kernel: only optimized for size if small_flash
Add a new config option to allow to select the default compile
optimization level for the kernel.

Select the optimization for size by default if the small_flash feature is
set. Otherwise "Optimize for performance" is set.

Add the small_flash feature flag to all (sub)targets which had the
optimization for size in their default kernel config.

Remove CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_* symbols from all kernel configs to apply the new
setting.

Exceptions to the above are:

  - lantiq, where the optimization for size is only required for the
    xway_legacy subtarget but was set for the whole target
  - mediatek, ramips/mt7620 & ramips/mt76x8 where boards should have
    plenty of space and an optimization for size doesn't make much sense
  - rb532, which has 128MByte flash

Luis Araneda 8f60c3d571 kernel: remove DEVMEM and DEVKMEM from target's config
These options are handled by generic configuration

Targets that need these options should select KERNEL_DEVMEM
and/or KERNEL_DEVKMEM options on OpenWRT's config

Jo-Philipp Wich cf7a88cf5a at91: cleanup kernel configurations
The subtarget configurations contained a lot of reduntant symbols, arbitrary
overrides and symbols set to =m.

Remove most of these redundant settings to shrink the subtarget configurations
to a manageable size.
