commit dbae0a934f09208075ec3e73491bd0844e1397b3

    x86/cpu: Remove CONFIG_X86_SMAP and "nosmap"
    
    Those were added as part of the SMAP enablement but SMAP is currently
    an integral part of kernel proper and there's no need to disable it
    anymore.
    
    Rip out that functionality. Leave --uaccess default on for objtool as
    this is what objtool should do by default anyway.
    
    If still needed - clearcpuid=smap.
