The ability to turn it off is potentially useful for any board, since
the address map is determined by boot software which can be changed, but
we shouldn't make it too easy to fail to select it for boards that
normally require it.
Don't we have CONFIG_EMBEDDED to make that sort of option visible ?

Cheers,
