Subject[2.6 patch] don't allow users to set CONFIG_BROKEN=y
Do not allow people to create configurations with CONFIG_BROKEN=y.

The sole reason for CONFIG_BROKEN=y would be if you are working on
fixing a broken driver, but in this case editing the Kconfig file is
trivial.

Never ever should a user enable CONFIG_BROKEN.
