ARM: update DEPRECATED_PARAM_STRUCT removal timeline
This configuration option is for the older boot method that preceeded ATAGS. This was scheduled for removal back in 2001, but the removal never happened, presumably because nobody cared enough to actually do it, not because there are any users left. Add "(DEPRECATED)' to the Kconfig line and update the timeline so we can remove it next year along with the other options that are not scheduled for that timeframe. Acked-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

This was deprecated in 2001 and announced to live on for 5 years.
- Some old boot loaders still use this way.
+ It is now scheduled for removal in early 2027.
