Sven Joachim 1f2190d6b7 arch/*/configs/*defconfig: Replace AUTOFS4_FS by AUTOFS_FS
Commit a2225d931f ("autofs: remove left-over autofs4 stubs")
promised the removal of the fs/autofs/Kconfig fragment for AUTOFS4_FS
within a couple of releases, but five years later this still has not
happened yet, and AUTOFS4_FS is still enabled in 63 defconfigs.

Get rid of it mechanically:

   git grep -l CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS -- '*defconfig' |
       xargs sed -i 's/AUTOFS4_FS/AUTOFS_FS/'

Also just remove the AUTOFS4_FS config option stub.  Anybody who hasn't
regenerated their config file in the last five years will need to just
get the new name right when they do.

tristate "Kernel automounter support (supports v3, v4 and v5)"
help
The automounter is a tool to automatically mount remote file systems
on demand. This implementation is partially kernel-based to reduce
overhead in the already-mounted case; this is unlike the BSD
automounter (amd), which is a pure user space daemon.
To use the automounter you need the user-space tools from
<https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/autofs/>; you also want
to answer Y to "NFS file system support", below.
To compile this support as a module, choose M here: the module will be
called autofs.
If you are not a part of a fairly large, distributed network or
don't have a laptop which needs to dynamically reconfigure to the
local network, you probably do not need an automounter, and can say
N here.
