avr32 was slated for removal in 2015.02. Make it so!

This patch only definitively hides the symbol. When all references
to it are eradicated (to come in followup patches), we'll eventually
kill the symbol altogether.

While at it, why not removing BR2_m68k ?

This architecture has been marked BROKEN since...
2009-01-12 by Peter Korsgard.

I got contacted by a person interested in bringing back to speed the
m68k support. And the m68k doesn't have as much impact as the avr32
support in terms of custom patches, specific handling and so on.

Best regards,

Thomas
