This effectively disables all default configurations which now depend
on CONFIG_LEGACY_PCI. Yet, I don't see CONFIG_LEGACY_PCI added to
configuration files which explicitly enable any of the affected
configurations. Is that on purpose ? If so, I think it should at least
be mentioned in the commit description. However, I think it would be
more appropriate to either delete all affected configuration flags from
the affected configuration files, or to add CONFIG_LEGACY_PCI=y to those
files.
