Is there an "official" description what this is supposed to mean ?

Some years ago "embedded" in the Linux Kernel meant that the CPU does 
not feature a Memory management Unit.

Nowadays, ARM CPUs without MMU seem rather outdated, while a lot of the 
newly designed "embedded boxes" (e.g. NAS devices) in fact do uses ARM 
CPUs with MMU.

Hence IMHO the therm "embedded" to select a feature of an ARCH should be 
avoided.
