[This is a resend of this patch. Would like to hear what others think of
this change. It makes the top level configuration consistent for all m68k
type processors, and makes it much easier to allow MMU enabled or disabled
across all types. If no-one has any objections then I want to push this into
linux-next, for eventual inclusion in the 3.2 merge window.]
I like the strutured layout.

Do you really need EISA, MCA and PCMIA? They have no promt thus cannot be
selected by the user.
Yes, your right, they don't look like than can be selected at all.
None of the default configs seem to reference them either.
Geert: do you know why these options might still be around?

def_bool ISA?
That looks simpler IMO - and they are enabled by the same options.
Yep, I'll make that change.
Thanks for the review.

Greg
