Subject: Re: [PATCH CFT] ARM:SHMOBILE: Enable AUTO_ZRELADDR by default

This patch does not enable AUTO_ZRELADDR by default.
It forces AUTO_ZRELADDR to be enabled to be used unless ZBOOT_ROM is enabled.

I'm not opposed to this approach but I think the changelog is misleading.


AUTO_ZRELADDR is known to work on the Genmai, Koelsch, KZM9D and Lager
boards and is enabled in their defconfigs.

I will defer to Magnus on weather he is comfortable with being
enable globally for shmobile but if not perhaps it could be selected
on a per-board or per-SoC basis.
