[PATCH] ARM: Kconfig: Do not force selection of ARCH_VEXPRESS by ARCH_MULTI_V7

[PATCH] ARM: Kconfig: Do not force selection of ARCH_VEXPRESS by ARCH_MULTI_V7

[Fabio Estevam]

From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@freescale.com>

When building a kernel using imx_v6_v7_defconfig, it is not possible to unselect
ARCH_VEXPRESS due to the fact that it is automatically selected by ARCH_MULTI_V7.

This is not good when someone wants to create a minimal kernel build, so let 
multi_v7_defconfig select ARCH_VEXPRESS instead.

You also need at least the following or randconfig builds will break when
no platform is selected.
