Make use of ARCH_RENESAS in place of ARCH_SHMOBILE.

This is part of an ongoing process to migrate from ARCH_SHMOBILE to
ARCH_RENESAS the motivation for which being that RENESAS seems to be a
more appropriate name than SHMOBILE for the majority of Renesas ARM based
SoCs.

Wouldn't it make sense to drop the driver instead ? We have a DRM driver
that replaces it.

Does the DRM driver work on all hardware supported by the fbdev driver?
It's not only used on r8a7740/armadillo (through staging/board due to lack
of DT support), but also on many SH boards.

It's supposed to be a replacement (lacking support for SYS panels though), but 
has obviously not been tested on SH boards.
