MIPS: generic: Allow filtering enabled boards by requirements
Up until now when configuring a generic kernel all board config fragments have been merged by default unless boards are explicitly selected by the user specifying BOARDS=. In many cases this is sub-optimal, since some boards don't make sense to include in some kernels. For example the MIPS SEAD-3 development board has only ever been used with 32 bit CPUs, so including support for the SEAD-3 in a 64 bit kernel is wasteful. This patch introduces support for specifying requirements in board config fragments, using comments formatted like so: # require CONFIG_BLA=y For example the SEAD-3 board could specify that it should only be merged for 32 bit kernels using a requirement line like the following: # require CONFIG_32BIT=y A new generic-board-config.sh script is introduced to handle selecting the board config fragments to merge & calling merge_config.sh to merge them. In order to allow requirements to check Kconfig symbols that are implicitly selected, rather than explicitly specified by generic_defconfig or one of the ISA config fragments, an intermediate .config file is saved & used as a reference when checking requirements.
