Hello,

Can we try to use positive logic here? See below what I mean.

So powerpc_620 is usable as PowerPC 32-bit, or PowerPC 64-bit BE ? If
so, then:

	depends on BR2_powerpc || BR2_powerpc64

Ditto.

And here:

	depends on BR2_powerpc64

Ditto:

Ditto:

And hgere:

	depends on BR2_powerpc64 || BR2_powerpc64le

It would be useful to do that in a consistent way for all PowerPC cores
in this choice, so that it is very clear for which of powerpc,
powerpc64 and powerpc64le each PowerPC core is valid.

Thanks!
