Since commit 7934779a69f1184f ("Driver-Core: disable /sbin/hotplug by default"), the help text for the /sbin/hotplug fork-bomb says "This should not be used today [...] creates a high system load, or [...] out-of-memory situations during bootup". The rationale for this was that no recent mainstream system used this anymore (in 2010!).
A few years later, the complete uevent helper support was made optional in commit 86d56134f1b67d0c ("kobject: Make support for uevent_helper optional."). However, if was still left enabled by default, to support ancient userland.
Time passed by, and nothing should use this anymore, so it can be disabled by default.

According to the systemd requirements, this option must be disabled, as it slows down the system and confuses udev.

It's been a few releases since this defaulted to /sbin/hotplug. Update the text, and include pointers to the two CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER{,_PATH} config knobs whose help text could provide more info, but also hint that the user probably doesn't need to care at all.
