Hmm... are there no places where the introduced config options
already used in config files ?

For example this is already defined in

./board/ti/am335x/Kconfig

So I miss at least the lines, which remove this part in your patch,
else I think, this would lead in a Kconfig error, if we have the
same symbol in two places ... or?

may you want to use my brand new tbot testcase [1] for testing, if your
patch not breaks boards?
