URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/314669

Log:
  Drop i486 from the default i386 GENERIC kernel configuration.
  
  80486 production was stopped by Intel on September 2007. Dropping the 486
  configuration option from the GENERIC kernel improves performance
  slightly.
  
  Removing I486_CPU is consistent at this time: we don't support any
  processor without a FPU and the PC-98 arch, which frequently involved i486
  CPUs, is also gone so we don't test such platforms anymore.
  
  Relnotes:	yes
  MFC after:	2 weeks
