linux/kconfig.h: add CPP macros useful for per-image config options
The previous commit introduced a useful macro used in makefiles,
in order to reference to different variables (CONFIG_... or
CONFIG_SPL_...) depending on the build context.
Per-image config option control is a PITA in C sources, too.
Here are some macros useful in C/CPP expressions.
CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(FOO) can be used as a shorthand for
For example, it is useful to describe C code as follows,
#if CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(OF_CONTROL)
(device tree code)
#else
(board file code)
#endif
The ifdef conditional above is switched by CONFIG_OF_CONTROL during
the U-Boot proper building (CONFIG_SPL_BUILD is not defined), and by
CONFIG_SPL_OF_CONTROL during SPL building (CONFIG_SPL_BUILD is
defined).
The macro can be used in C context as well, so you can also write the
equivalent code as follows:
if (CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(OF_CONTROL)) {
(device tree code)
} else {
(board file code)
}
Another useful macro is CONFIG_VALUE().
CONFIG_VALUE(FOO) is expanded into CONFIG_FOO if CONFIG_SPL_BUILD is
undefined, and into CONFIG_SPL_FOO if CONFIG_SPL_BUILD is defined.
This commit also adds slight hacking on fixdep so that it can
output a correct list of fixed dependencies.
If the fixdep finds CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(FOO) in a source file,
we want
$(wildcard include/config/foo.h)
in the U-boot proper building context, while we want
$(wildcard include/config/spl/foo.h)
in the SPL build context.

kbuild: add a makefile macro useful with per-image config options
Commit e02ee2548afe ("kconfig: switch to single .config
configuration") made the configuration itself pretty simple,
instead, we lost the way to systematically enable/disable config
options for each image independently.
Our current strategy is, put entries into Makefile.spl for options
we need separate enabling, or once enable the options globally in
Kconfig and then undef them in Makefile.uncmd_spl if we do not want
to compile the features for SPL at all. Things are getting really
messy. Besides, "ifdef CONFIG_SPL_BUILD" are sprinkled everywhere
in makefiles.
This commit adds a variable to help describe makefile simpler.
$(SPL_) evaluates to "SPL_" during the SPL build, while to an empty
string during building U-boot proper.
This is the pattern we often see in our current makefiles.
To take advantage of this macro, we should prefix SPL_ for the SPL
version of the option when we need independent control between
U-boot and SPL. With this naming scheme, I hope our makefiles will
be much simplified.
It means we want to rename existing config options as follows

i2c: lpc32xx: correct sanity check for requested bus speed
LPC32xx has 3 I2C bus controllers, 2 of them are used as generic ones
and their parent clock is HCLK and CLK_HI/CLK_LO registers are 10 bit
wide. This means that if HCLK is 104MHz, then minimal configurable I2C
clock speed is about 51KHz.
Only USB OTG I2C bus controller CLK registers are 8 bit wide, thus in
assumption that peripheral clock is 13MHz it allows to set the minimal
bus speed about 25.5KHz.
Check for negative half clock value is removed since it is always false.
The change fixes the following problem for I2C busses 0 and 1:
=> i2c dev 0
Setting bus to 0
=> i2c speed 100000
Setting bus speed to 100000 Hz
