Yinghai, please get rid of the NUMAQ build option altogether and
eliminate the subarch.
We should keep a compatibility CONFIG_X86_NUMAQ that selects
X86_GENERICARCH, so that 'make oldconfig' on a NUMAQ config does the
right thing - but it's not a subarch anymore nor anything
user-configurable.
All that together would be a very nice simplification.
Ingo
