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.

This file documents the CONFIG_PACKET_MMAP option available with the PACKET
This file documents the mmap() facility available with the PACKET
socket interface on 2.4 and 2.6 kernels. This type of sockets is used for
capture network traffic with utilities like tcpdump or any other that needs
raw access to network interface.

mechanism that results in faster communication.
