Enabling CHRP, PMAC support *AND* non-CHRP platforms is possible in the same binary.

It's possible to build a kernel with 50 network drivers, too. That doesn't mean they should all be "default y". The kernel build takes long enough as is.

If you really want to build a single-cpu single-board kernel, disable CHRP
and PMAC for those board configs,

If you really want to build a targets-everything kernel, then turn on everything. Go ahead and create a 6xx_defconfig that has support for everything enabled. But don't cause huge heaps of stuff to be enabled for everyone that does a "make oldconfig" with a config file that predates change d8267c1a36864fc30a2ce01f4349a8f2931ae741.
