+pppd: Remove runtime kernel checks
+
+On embedded system distributions the required kernel features for pppd are
+more or less guaranteed to be present, so there is not much point in
+performing runtime checks, it just increases the binary size.
+
+This patch removes the runtime kernel feature checks.
