Subject: m68knommu: make ColdFire SoC selection a choice

From: Greg Ungerer <[email protected]>

commit fa95a1dd0819c9041a873b10a6d83b5134964154 upstream.

It would be nice if we could support multiple ColdFire SoC types in a single binary - but currently the code simply does not support it. Change the SoC selection config options to be a choice instead of individual selectable entries.

This fixes problems with building allnoconfig, and means that a sane linux kernel is generated for a single ColdFire SoC type.
