Kconfig: update flightly outdated CONFIG_SMP documentation
Remove an outdated reference to "most personal computers" having only one CPU, and change the use of "singleprocessor" and "single processor" in CONFIG_SMP's documentation to "uniprocessor" across all arches where that documentation is present. Signed-off-by: Robert Graffham <psquid@psquid.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
