The official arch name is LoongArch [1], we should use small letter
loongarch instead of loong in Documentation/features, just use the
features-refresh.sh to refresh all the related files.

<content type='text'>
The arch support status files don't match reality as of v5.19-rc1,
use the features-refresh.sh to refresh all the arch-support.txt files
in place.  The main effect is to add entries for the new loong
architecture.

* 'remove-h8300' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc:
  remove the h8300 architecture

This is clearly the least actively maintained architecture we have at
the moment, and probably the least useful. It is now the only one that
does not support MMUs at all, and most of the boards only support 4MB
of RAM, out of which the defconfig kernel needs more than half just
for .text/.data.

Guenter Roeck did the original patch to remove the architecture in 2013
after it had already been obsolete for a while, and Yoshinori Sato brought
it back in a much more modern form in 2015. Looking at the git history
since the reinstantiation, it's clear that almost all commits in the tree
are build fixes or cross-architecture cleanups:

$ git log --no-merges --format=%an v4.5.. arch/h8300/  | sort | uniq
-c | sort -rn | head -n 12

<title>nds32: Remove the architecture</title>

<id>urn:sha1:aec499c75cf8e0b599be4d559e6922b613085f8f</id>
<content type='text'>
The nds32 architecture, also known as AndeStar V3, is a custom 32-bit
RISC target designed by Andes Technologies. Support was added to the
kernel in 2016 as the replacement RISC-V based V5 processors were
already announced, and maintained by (current or former) Andes
employees.

As explained by Alan Kao, new customers are now all using RISC-V,
and all known nds32 users are already on longterm stable kernels
provided by Andes, with no development work going into mainline
support any more.

While the port is still in a reasonably good shape, it only gets
worse over time without active maintainers, so it seems best
to remove it before it becomes unusable. As always, if it turns
out that there are mainline users after all, and they volunteer
to maintain the port in the future, the removal can be reverted.

is gone. Remove them.
