3dc7c7a6ea drivers/interrupt_controller/mvic.c: remove MVIC interrupt controller
The Quark D2000 is the only x86 with an MVIC, and since support for
it has been dropped, the interrupt controller is orphaned. Removed.

1a2ef42973 arch: arm: remove FP activation in system boot
This commit removes the activation of the FP context
in ARM system boot. There is no need to do this, since
the FP context will be activated in the presence of
floating point instructions. We update the reference
documentation accordingly.

This commit updates the documentation as follows:
- stresses that the lazy stacking preservation is disabled
  by default and not supported in ARM Cortex-M builds,
- corrects the figure of extra stack requirement when
  floating point services are enabled in ARM builds.
