Done.

          This option enables generic support for Xilinx Virtex based boards.

+         The generic virtex board support matches any device tree which
+         specifies 'xilinx,virtex' in its compatible field.  This includes
+         the Xilinx ML3xx and ML4xx reference designs using the powerpc
+         core.
+
+         Most Virtex designs should use this unless it needs to do some
+         special configuration at board probe time.
