[PATCH] powerpc: Make early debugging options behave with oldconfig
If you undefine all the early debugging options and then run make oldconfig, you don't get prompted to see if you want to enable any of them. This is annoying. AFAICT we can't do this just with a choice, because the choice is either optional, in which case we don't get prompted, or not in which case we _must_ select early debugging. So add a bool which controls whether we have early debugging at all, and then if that's enabled provide the choice. The extra bool will actually be useful in another patch I have lying around, so this is a win-win.
