The PPC_DT_CPU_FTRs is a bit misplaced in menuconfig, it shows up with
other general kernel options. It's really more at home in the "Platform
Support" section, so move it there.

Also enable it by default, for Book3s 64. It does mostly nothing unless
the device tree properties are found, and we will want it enabled
eventually in distro kernels, so turn it on to start getting more
testing.

Well I'd better send the patch to enable it in firmware then.
At some point :)

It actually matters less when it goes into firmware, but yeah I think
it's sufficiently cooked that it should go in.

cheers
