[PATCHv3 17/17] arm64: uaccess: remove vestigal UAO support

[Mark Rutland]

Now that arm64 no longer uses UAO, remove the vestigal feature detection
code and Kconfig text.

-	  User Access Override (UAO; part of the ARMv8.2 Extensions)
-	  causes the 'unprivileged' variant of the load/store instructions to
-	  be overridden to be privileged.
-
-	  This option changes get_user() and friends to use the 'unprivileged'
-	  variant of the load/store instructions. This ensures that user-space
-	  really did have access to the supplied memory. When addr_limit is
-	  set to kernel memory the UAO bit will be set, allowing privileged
-	  access to kernel memory.
-
-	  Choosing this option will cause copy_to_user() et al to use user-space
-	  memory permissions.
-
-	  The feature is detected at runtime, the kernel will use the
-	  regular load/store instructions if the cpu does not implement the
-	  feature.
