The mlx5 driver requires 64-bit atomics, which are not supported on 32-bit
PPC. Exclude that driver from the LINT kernel config.

This driver was merged to HEAD one week prior to Exar publicly announcing they
had left the Ethernet market. It is not known to be used and has various code
quality issues spotted by Brooks and Hiren. Retire it in preparation for
FreeBSD 12.0.

HEAD. Enable VIMAGE in GENERIC kernels and some others (where GENERIC does
not exist) on HEAD.
Disable building LINT-VIMAGE with VIMAGE being default.
This should give it a lot more exposure in the run-up to 12 to help
us evaluate whether to keep it on by default or not.
We are also hoping to get better performance testing.
The feature can be disabled using nooptions.

and our users complained when broken.
Similarly add LINT-NOINET, and for at least documentation purposes add
LINT-NOIP (which compiles out INET and INET6 and couple of NIC drivers).

sys/conf/makeLINT.mk, which includes LINT and sets options VIMAGE
so that we will have VIMAGE LINT builds[1]. For now only do it for
those two architectures to avoid massive universe times for archs,
where people will less likely use VIMAGE or not at all.

Fixed memory leak in the "nodevice" option implementation.
Use these instead of sed(1) in MD NOTES.
Use a single makefile (sys/conf/makeLINT.mk) to generate
LINT for all architectures. (Previous versions missed
the LINT dependency on Makefile, and i386 version also
missed the dependency on ${NOTES}.)
Fixed bugs in the previous NOTES conversion using the
"nodevice" token and sed(1):
- i386 LINT lost "device pst".
- pc98 LINT lost SC_*, MAXCONS and KBD_DISABLE_KEYMAP_LOAD
options, and got needless DPT_* options.
- Added nooptions PPC_DEBUG, PPC_PROBE_CHIPSET, KBD_INSTALL_CDEV
to sparc64 LINT so that it has a chance to config(8).
This basically returns us to where we were before.
