The ARCH_MSM_SCORPIONMP config's only purpose was to enable SMP higher
up.  We might as well eliminate ARCH_MSM_SCORPIONMP entirely, and just
select HAVE_SMP in ARCH_MSM8X60 and ARCH_MSM8960.

Also, be sure to run ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl on your patch so that
the proper people get addressed by the message.  Otherwise, people
might miss patches.
