Right, this patch does actually remove it from the machine fragment for
the BSP, but I take your point - I was noticing when adding the usb
features that there are plenty of opportunities for cleanup of the
common-pc-* fragments, and it probably does make sense to add
'policy'-related features to the -standard/preempt-rt containers in
general, though not just for 'tiny' since I doubt anyone would ever want
a 'tiny' jasperforest BSP.

So, agreed in principal, but that's a separate task from this patchset.
