The removal of this file appears to have been premature; it's not a feature
enabled by Kconfig, but it's a arch-level feature regardless.  Put it back
for now until some happy future time when we decide how we really want to
document such features.

This reverts commit 2bef69a3.

The document describes NUMA memory policy and as it is a part of the Linux
documentation it's obvious that this is Linux memory policy. Besides,
"Linux memory policy" may refer to other policies, e.g. memory hotplug
policy, and using term NUMA makes the documentation less ambiguous.

Kconfig for 'rwsem-optimized': the new Kconfig expresses this feature
equivalently, while also enabling the script 'features-refresh.sh' to

the status matrix by using the script 'features-refresh.sh'.

   "[...] we soft- decouple the refreshing of the entries from the

  they are not typical C library functions)

- move Sorting from Math Functions to Basic Kernel Library Functions
  since sort functions are more Basic than Math Functions
