Per my last mail, where I commented on the origins of some of this code,
there were no multi-letter extensions when this code was first added.
When the first multi-letter ones did get added, it was Sscofpmf - that
doesn't have a Kconfig symbol to disable it, so I think this has been
redundant for a long time.

Apart from the ones I recently added, there's a fair few others that
are not gated & should always be present.
It's probably not clear from the comment, but this check is for whether
the kernel supports extensions, not whether the system it is running on
does. I guess I should expand on that in my commit message.

Thanks,
Conor.
