[PATCH v4 5/5] imx6q: Remove unconditional dependency on l2x0 L2 cache support

The i.MX6 Quad SoC will work without the l2x0 L2 cache controller
support built into the kernel, so this patch removes the dependency
on CACHE_L2X0 and selects MIGHT_HAVE_CACHE_L2X0 instead.

This makes the l2x0 support optional, so that it can be turned off
when desired for debugging purposes etc.

Thanks to Shawn Guo for this suggestion. [1]
