Commit 1c8859848dbb ("coresight replicator: Cleanup programmable

QCOM_REPLICATOR, which, whilst not in the single arm64 defconfig,
was being set in my juno build script, which left the new symbol unset,
causing the following unexpected grief:

  # ./perf record -vvv -C 0 -e cs_etm/@20070000.etr/ --per-thread true

  AUX area mmap length 4194304
  perf event ring buffer mmapped per cpu
  failed to mmap AUX area
  failed to mmap with 12 (Cannot allocate memory)

Make it default y to help not surprise unsuspecting users.

As I said before don't see why it needs to be treated differently than other CS
blocks

I don't think it does either, but this one is special since it recently
underwent a rename, which breaks its users that were setting the old
name in their config builds.  The default y keeps it set in those
cases, thereby discontinuing any such regression.

I don't think the kernel CONFIG symbols are part of the kernel ABI. So,
unfortunately the users have to take care of making sure they select what
they need.
