[PATCH v2] configs: migrate CONFIG_SYS_ARM_CACHE_* in Kconfig

Fri Apr 10 16:02:02 CEST 2020


Move CONFIG_SYS_ARM_CACHE_WRITETHROUGH and
CONFIG_SYS_ARM_CACHE_WRITEALLOC into Kconfig done by moveconfig.py.

Kconfig uses a choice between the 3 values supported in U-Boot,
including the new configuration CONFIG_SYS_ARM_CACHE_WRITEBACK
(the default configuration).

The patch also avoids to select simultaneously 2 configurations.

Changes in v2:
- default SYS_ARM_CACHE_WRITETHROUGH if CPU_PXA || RZA1
  and remove defconfig impacts for grpeach and colibri_pxa270
