These must be mutually exclusive, you surely get some build error if you try to
set both here.

You can either make it a 'choice' statement to pick between the two, or you
can make CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN a silent option like

config CPU_BIG_ENDIAN
       bool "Big endian"

config CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN
       def_bool !CPU_BIG_ENDIAN

Can you determine this from the CPU type?

I think you mentioned that the 1GB configuration is quite common, how
about making VMSPLIT_3G_OPT the default here?
