Hi Valentin,

If I read this correctly, this misidentifies these Kconfig symbols (all
found in powerpc, by the way):
    8260
    8272
    40x
    44x
    6xx
    8xx
    4xx

8260 and 8272 are rather unfortunate names. I'm all for renaming them.
But we're probably stuck with those other five symbols.
