[patch 1/4] Configure out AIO support

[Thomas Petazzoni]

This patchs adds the CONFIG_AIO option which allows to remove support
for asynchronous I/O operations, that are not necessarly used by
applications, particularly on embedded devices. As this is a
size-reduction option, it depends on CONFIG_EMBEDDED. It allows to
save ~7 kilobytes of kernel code/data:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
1115067	 119180	 217088	1451335	 162547	vmlinux
1108025	 119048	 217088	1444161	 160941	vmlinux.new
  -7042    -132       0   -7174   -1C06 +/-

This patch has been originally written by Matt Mackall
<mpm@xxxxxxxxxxx>, and is part of the Linux Tiny project.
