Alas, We can't do this so easy. CONFIG_CPU_MIPS32_{R2,R5,R6} and any other
CONFIG_CPU_* configs is something that kernel config-file is supposed to select.
Their availability is enabled by the CONFIG_SYS_HAS_CPU_* configs. CONFIG_CPU_*
is supposed to activate CPU-specific features and there is only one
CONFIG_CPU_x can be enabled at a time seeing it's a part of the "CPU type"
choice kconfig menu. In addition the CPU config also tunes a compiler to 
activate
the arch-specific ISA and optimizations in the arch/mips/Makefile by setting
-march=cpu-name (where cpu-name can be p5600, mips32r5, etc).

Yes, P5600 is based on the MIPS32r5, but it also has got some specific features
(see config CPU_P5600 and config MIPS32_R5), which makes it to be different from
the ancestor. So In addition to the difficulties described above IMHO converting
CPU_P5600 to a set of features activated on top of the CPU_MIPS32_R5 config
would contradict the design of the CPU-support configs implemented in the MIPS
arch subsystem.
