Our final goal is:
    We should not use any CONFIG_* in host tools.
    Actually, some host tools in U-boot depend on the board
configuration, which is weird.
  If we could rip off CONFIG_* from them, neither CONFIG_IS_ENABLED()
nor linux/kconfig.h
  is needed for host tools.  I believe this is the right thing to do.
    Any volunteer?


What I can suggest now is:
    Do not use CONFIG_IS_ENABLED() in board config headers.


include/config/microblaze-generic.h does this:

#if !defined(CONFIG_OF_CONTROL) || \
(defined(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) && !defined(CONFIG_SPL_OF_CONTROL))
/* ddr sdram - main memory */
# define CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_BASE XILINX_RAM_START
# define CONFIG_SYS_SDRAM_SIZE XILINX_RAM_SIZE
#endif


This is indeed ugly, but works...
