SRU Justification

Impact - low memory killer is too aggressive

Patch description - turn off Android staging drivers
Several of the Android staging drivers can only be built-in to the kernel. As 
such their use is not voluntary. The list of drivers includes the low memory 
killer, ashmem, binder, sw_sync, alarm-dev, etc. The _only_ Android drivers 
that can be built as modules are timed_gpio and logger. Setting 
CONFIG_ANDROID=n disables all of these drivers.
