Have one option to control Miscellaneous filesystems.
This makes it easy to disable all of them at one time.

I have no particular issue against adding this option, but the help message is misleading. The miscellaneous submenu also contains (mainly) embedded filesystems such as jffs2, cramfs, romfs and eCrypt which are native to Linux.

The help message should be changed, or perhaps these filesystems moved into a new submenu of their own.
