mconsole_init() passed 256 bytes as length in os_create_unix_socket, while
the sizeof UNIX_PATH_MAX is 108. This patch fixes that problem and avoids
a big overrun bug reported on UML bootup.

sockaddr_un.sun_path is UNIX_PATH_MAX long which causes the problem.

Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since:

a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints.

Teach scripts/kconfig/Makefile and top-level Makefile that arch/*/Makefile

Rewrite arch/um/Kconfig and arch/um/Kconfig.&lt;subarch&gt; so that the latter
