Log Message:
Change GENERIC, GENERIC.MP, GENERIC.MPACPI, GENERIC_LAPTOP, INSTALL,
INSTALL.MP, INSTALL_LAPTOP, and DISKLESS kernels so that they are
smaller and faster by removing support for actual i386 CPUs (which
lack write protection in supervisor mode, which requires a costly
workaround) and math coprocessor emulation.  Coprocessor emulation
is retained in the LAPTOP kernels, but not in the others.  Where
it is known that a configuration cannot be run with particular CPUs
(i486 in *MP kernels) remove that support as well.  Compile all
kernels with appropriate architecture and tuning flags (reduces
size, makes things faster).  Those requiring support for machines
with i386 CPU or lacking coprocessor can use the *SMALL or *TINY
kernels.
