There are two major issues with the kconfig:
() Some of the config options have incorrect dependencies inside help
under menuconfig. For example, CONFIG_GPIO depends on BOARD_GALILEO.
() Since the SoC and board specific kconfig files are parsed first,
the help screen would say, for example, CONFIG_SPI is defined at
arch/arm/soc/fsl_frdm_k64f/Kconfig. This is incorrect because
the actual config is defined in drivers/spi/Kconfig.
These cause great confusion to users of menuconfig/xconfig.
To fix these, the SoC and board defaults are now to be parsed last.
Note that the position swapping of defaults in this patch is due to
the fact the the default parsed last will be used.
And, spi_test is broken due to the fact that it requires
CONFIG_SPI_INTEL_PORT_1, but never enables it anywhere. This is
bypassed for now.

The peripherals utilizing UART were required to register their own
ISR rountines. This means that all those peripherals drivers need
to know which IRQ line is attached to a UART controller, and all
the other config values required to register a ISR. This causes
scalibility issue as every board and peripherals have to define
those values.
Another reason for this patch is to support virtual serial ports.
Virtual serial ports do not have physical interrupt lines to
attach, and thus would not work.
This patch adds a simple callback mechanism, which calls a function
when UART interrupts are triggered. The low level plumbing still needs
to be done by the peripheral drivers, as these drivers may need to
access low level capability of UART to function correctly. This simply
moves the interrupt setup into the UART drivers themselves. By doing
this, the peripheral drivers do not need to know all the config values
to properly setup the interrupts and attaching the ISR. One drawback
is that this adds to the interrupt latency.
Note that this patch breaks backward compatibility in terms of
setting up interrupt for UART controller. How to use UART is still
the same.
This also addresses the following issues:
() UART driver for Atmel SAM3 currently does not support interrupts.
So remove the code from vector table. This will be updated when
there is interrupt support for the driver.
() Corrected some config options for Stellaris UART driver.
This was tested with samples/shell on Arduino 101, and on QEMU
(Cortex-M3 and x86).

This removes the default flash and SRAM base addresses from the ARM core
Kconfig file. Each individual SoC/processors Kconfig has to define them.
This is in preparation to support Atmel SAM3 family processors as they
have different base addresses.

Change terminology and use SoC instead of platform. An SoC provides
features and default configurations available with an SoC. A board
implements the SoC and adds more features and IP block specific to the
board to extend the SoC functionality such as sensors and debugging
features.
