You should add the old option to that file, so the user gets informed about the change. Finally you should check if another package uses this option for its own configuration and change this to the new option. BR2_PACKAGE_TCL_SHLIB_ONLY is used by usb_modeswitch (not usb_modeswitch_data anymore) to switch between the binary wrapper and the tcl wrapper script. Best regards Patrick -- Dipl.-Inf.
