There are 2 reason for this

1) in File arch/arm/cpu/armv8/fsl-layerscape/Kconfig, "depends" row will keep on increasing with SoC.  
And if I add new field CONFIG_SYS_FSL_IFC_CLK_DIV, similar entry will be done and it will also keep on increasing with SoC.
I want to avoid it.

config SYS_FSL_IFC_BANK_COUNT
	int "Maximum banks of Integrated flash controller"
	depends on ARCH_LS1043A || ARCH_LS1046A || ARCH_LS2080A
	default 4 if ARCH_LS1043A
	default 4 if ARCH_LS1046A
	default 8 if ARCH_LS2080A

2) There is no file similar to  " arch/arm/cpu/armv8/fsl-layerscape/Kconfig" for powerpc platform. So how to add new " CONFIG SYS_FSL_IFC_CLK_DIV" with different values per SoC.
   This problem will come for defining other clocks for " armv8/fsl-lsch3: consolidate the clock system initialization"
