David S. Miller 889b8f964f packet: Kill CONFIG_PACKET_MMAP.
Early on this was an experimental facility that few
people other than Alexey Kuznetsov played with.

Now it's a pretty fundamental thing and as people add
more features to AF_PACKET sockets this config options
creates ifdef spaghetti.

So kill it off.

---help---
The Packet protocol is used by applications which communicate
directly with network devices without an intermediate network
protocol implemented in the kernel, e.g. tcpdump. If you want them
to work, choose Y.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
be called af_packet.
If unsure, say Y.
