boards ship with 4G of DDR (but that off the top of my head) and thus
require the 36-bit / PHYS_64BIT support to be enabled.

I know that current support of DPAA boards requires 36-bit.  But I
don't think they need to select the PHYS_64BIT option directly and
make it not configurable.  It's conflicting with the logic that
enabling a platform support doesn't mean the kernel is only running on
that platform.  Btw: what's your recommendations on solving this?

But selecting PHYS_64BIT shouldn't prevent running on the other
platforms. If it does, then this needs to be fixed.

Ben.
