These were removed in prior versions of kernels. Signed-off-by: Alexander M. Merritt <alexander@edera.dev>
base zone config has gpu support explicitly disabled now Signed-off-by: Alexander M. Merritt <alexander@edera.dev>
No functional changes. Options removed are prompt-less (not available for selection the menuconfig) and KMS_HELPER resolves to y via another option that `select`s it explicitly. Signed-off-by: Alexander M. Merritt <alexander@edera.dev>
Remove options that are either prompt-less, default enabled, or selected from other options. Signed-off-by: Alexander M. Merritt <alexander@edera.dev>

Kernel build times don't seem to be reducing for the zones... still 30-40min. I notice in the Kernel builds there is still USB and the keymaps are something I explicitly disabled. |

Our current fragment is quite small.
What that means: default-enabled config options in Kconfig that are not explicitly disabled in our fragment, will be enabled once merged with a defconfig for the architecture. Examples include wireless hardware support and networking, bluetooth, sound, etc. which we all do not need for zone kernels.
Goals: reduce the amount of text in the kernel, second to reduce build times.
This is one of many in the future to come; we'll need to
is not setany default-enabled configuration options we do not want. For future kernels, we'll need to check for any newly introduce configuration options that are default-enabled and repeat for them.I'd like to properly generate the fragment rather than have us go with manually editing the config when we want to tweak something.
